AGMA’s standards development process has been reorganized from a committee-based structure to a project-based format. This change means that AGMA will no longer have standing, topic-specific committees. Instead, project working groups will be formed to develop and deliver project-specific objectives. The group will be dissolved at the end of the project. The change will enable the AGMA’s Technical Division Executive Committee (TDEC) to pivot its resources in a timely manner to meet and address the ever-changing needs and challenges of the gearing industry.

The AGMA Technical Division informs of the publication of new documents by ISO Central: ISO 10300-1:2023, Calculation of load capacity of bevel gears — Part 1: Introduction and general influence factors; ISO 10300-2:2023, Calculation of load capacity of bevel gears — Part 2: Calculation of surface durability (macropitting); ISO 10300-3:2023, Calculation of load capacity of bevel gears — Part 3: Calculation of tooth root strength.
