Designing a nominal gear train that meets customer targets is just not enough anymore. Based on the technical collaboration between Romax and Ford, statistical modules were created that allowed us to factor in the manufacturing variability and initial design tolerances as part of the upfront gear whine evaluation process. This provides invaluable insight into the robustness of the gear train design early in the development process. The Romax software tools support Ford's Design for Six Sigma process and have already led to significant quality improvements. Ford will continue to work with Romax to further define and advance its capabilities.
