Figure 14.19: Gear cost as a function of gear quality. Note that the powder metallurgy
approaches of pressing and sintering and metal injection molding can produce gears up
to a quality index of 8 without additional machining. Recent research has suggested that
similar quality levels can be achieved from cold forging as well.

Recall that the torque is related to the power by hp = T.
6. The dynamic factor, Kv, depends on gear speed and quality. For simplicity,
a value of Kv = 1.43 can be assumed, which is conservative for most
applications.

Where gr is the gear ratio. Note that the plus sign in the denominator of Eq.~
(14.79) applies for external gearsets, the negative sign for internal gearsets.
9. Yj can be conservatively estimated as approximately 0.45 (see Fig. 14.30).
10. The life factors Yn and Zn can be estimated from Fig. 14.26.
