ZAR1+

Gear Design Software


Spur and Helical Gears
for Windows

www.hexagon.de Copyright 1988-2020 by HEXAGON Software, Berlin, Kirchheim, Neidlingen

Bases for Calculation


The ZAR1+ gear calculation program calculates
geometry and strength of spur and helical gears with
involute toothing (external or internal) in conformance
to industrial standards DIN 3960, ISO 1328 or DIN
3961, DIN 3967, ISO 6336 or DIN 3990. Calculation
method can be configured. The program contains
appropriate interfaces for linking it to CAD systems
and databases.

Geometry Calculation
Once the user has entered pressure angle, helix
angle, normal module, number of teeth, facewidth
and addendum modification coefficients or center
distance, ZAR1+ calculates dimensions of gear, gear
teeth, tool, and contact ratio factors. On entering
gear quality and tolerance zone, the program
calculates tooth flank tolerances, tooth thickness,
backlash, span width, diametral dimensions over
or between balls and pins, and permissible errors
according to ISO 1328 or DIN 3961.

Pre-Dimensioning
By input of transmission ratio, rotational speed,
power or torque and center distance, ZAR1+
suggests possible combinations with different
number of teeth, transmission ratio, and profile shift..

Strength Calculation
The load capacity with respect to tooth root fatigue
fracture and pitting can be calculated in conformance
with either ISO 6336 or DIN 3990-1,2,3 or DIN 3990-
41 (Vehicle transmission).

Life expectation
If safety factors are less than 1, ZAR1+ calculates
time and load cycles until pitting and tooth breakage.

Special Profiles
To enable users to optimize gear pairs with extra-
depth teeth, the program allows the tool dimensions
of normal and protuberance profiles to be defined
freely, even with chamfer.
Material Database
ZAR1+ is delivered with an integrated material
database (may be modified by the user).

Animation
ZAR1+ provides animation with rotation of the gear
wheels to observe tooth contact on screen. You can
define start engle, end angle, and number of steps.

Production drawing
ZAR1+ generates gear drawings with tables of gear
data, dimensions and tolerances with ISO 7200 data
field.

Diagrams
Safety factors and life expectation as function of
input torque and gear quality can be displayed as
diagram. Another diagram shows specific sliding
along the tooth contact line.

Quick View
Quick View of ZAR1+ displays drawings, diagrams
and tables altogether on one screen.

Multistage Gears
For large transmission ratio, ZAR1+ calculates
module, number of teeth and center distances of
multistage gears.

Load Spectrum
ZAR1+ allows you to define and calculate a load
spectrum, with output of a life expectancy diagram.

CAD Interface
Gear drawings, tables and diagrams, true-scale
drawings of gear profile, single tooth or reference
profile can be generated as DXF or IGES file.

User Interface
The dialogue windows of ZAR1+ allow even the less
experienced PC user to find his way around the
program quickly. ZAR1 provides users with a rele-
vant help text wherever they are in the program. When
the demo mode is selected, ZAR1 runs through a
demo program in which an example calculation is
performed. ZAR1+ contains more than 50 auxiliary
pictures with geometrical signs and formulas used.

Units
ZAR1+ can be switched between metric units (mm,
N,MPa) and imperial units (inch, lbf, psi).

System Requirements
ZAR1+ is available as 32-bit app or as 64-bit app for
Windows 10, 8, Windows 7.

Scope of Delivery
Software with user manual (pdf), non-expiring
license for unlimited time use with update rights.

Guarantee
HEXAGON gives a 24 month guarantee on full
functionality of the software.
HEXAGON Software is continuously improved and
updated. Registered users are regularly kept informed
of updates and new editions.
