Book Description

Excerpt from American Machinist Gear Book: Simplified Tables and Formulas for Designing The continued demand for a work on gearing along lines as originally planned by Charles H. Logue in 1910 has been so persistent that it has been deemed advisable to enlarge and revise the previous edition Of the American M ackinist Gear Book rather than to publish at the present time a new book on practical gear design and methods of production. In doing so, parts of the original work which are no longer of particular value to the practical man have been omitted and other parts revised to bring the work up to date. The chief additions have consisted of sections devoted to varieties Of bevel gears which have demonstrated their commercial value during the past few years spiral type bevel gears and bevels of the Williams master form variety; to an exposition Of the Williams System of Internal Gearing; and to the first presentation in book form Of the successful development of the rolling process of gear production.
