A New Numerical Algorithm for Transmission Error Measurement at Gears Meshing

Abstract:

Many different methods have been developed for the measurement of transmission error (T.E.) at gears meshing. Each strategy improved the measurement performance is based on comparing the phases of sequence signals by counting the number of encoder pulses. The phase comparison method of T.E. is a dynamic measurement algorithm with lower angular resolution and many constrained conditions. This paper presents a new numerical algorithm aimed to provide the high accuracy information of instantaneous T.E. in the form of angular displacement. The analysis approach uses phase shift and demodulation technology in frequency domain to process the signals generated by encoders fixed on the both shaft of the gear driving mechanism. Finally, the algorithm is tested by simulation of gear meshing signal in Matlab software.
