TRANSCRIPT
EUROTRANS Gear Training
Although the power transmission industry is an important economic sector, most of the universities as well as colleges do not offer appropriate courses. In Europe, a mechanical engineer gets 5 hours of gear training on average – which is far too little for the needs of industry. Moreover, the number of gear trainers decreases due to retirement and non-replacement. As a consequence, EUROTRANS identified the top gear trainers from Switzerland and the UK and developed an extensive training on gear design and manufacturing. Addressing a European audience, this industrial training will take place in Zurich with trainers from renowned companies in the field of motion and drive technology.

The lecturers:
Dr. Ing. Ulrich Kissling Managing Director KISSsoft AGDr. Ulrich Kissling studied Machine Engineering at the Swiss Technical University (ETH). He continued his academic career with a doctoral thesis. He started his professional career as calculation engineer in a Gearbox Manufacturing Company in Zurich and continued then as Technical Manager and Managing Director.
Ulrich Kissling started to develop a software for gear, bearing and shaft layout. Today the software is the leading drive train design software, used by more than 2500 companies on all continents. Dr. Kissling is together with his partner managing director of KISSsoft AG.
As gear expert Dr. Kissling is chairman of the TK25 committee (Gears) of the Swiss Standards Association (SNV).
Dr. Rob Frazer Design Unit, Gear Technology Centre, Newcastle University, UK, Senior EngineerRob is a senior engineer at the Design Unit, the Gear Technology Centre at Newcastle University in the UK. He has spent over 30 years working with gears. He is head of the UK’s National Gear Metrology Laboratory (NGML), a UKAS accredited UK Designated Institute (DI) and also responsible for gear design and gear analysis within the Unit. Rob is chair of BSI MCE-5, the UK committee responsible for over 90 gear related standards and is the UK representative on the ISO gear accuracy committee (ISO TC60 WG2). He is actively involved with delivering the British Gear Association’s (BGA) training seminar programme in the UK.
Patrick Wirz Head of Engineering Humbel GroupHe is responsible for engineering and technology of the Humbel Group. Patrick is experienced in design and calculation of complete gearboxes for industrial, racing and public transport applications. Together with his team, he always takes the manufacturing view into consideration in an early state of the project. The manufacturing and design know-how in spur -, planetary -, worm – and bevel gears and racks opens a wide range of transmission applications for Humbel customers.
Hamdi Demir Metallurgy Engineer, BScAfter university I worked for three years in foundry and forging master companies in Istanbul. Since 1990 I have been working with FLSmidth MAAG in Winterthur and since 2005 as Manager Metallurgy. Next to my job at FLSmidth MAAG, I head Demir Lab Met-Tech. GmbH which offers following support: destructive and non-destructive investigation, damage and failure investigation, metallography, ambulant metallography, surface hardness test, technical support/schooling (materials, heat treatment, gearbox both manufacturing and damage), quality assurance and quality control, as well audit / inspection of foundries.
André Thuswaldner CEO Novagear AGAndré spent more than 20 years of his professional life in the gear industry. Since 2010, he is co-owner and CEO of Novagear AG, an engineering company located in Zurich. His today’s activities include design and development of tailor-made gear solutions, support for testing / commissioning / maintenance as well as short-term troubleshooting on site.
Gearboxes with highest demands regarding speed, power and complexity are his incentive and his speciality. The development of a 22‘000 kW epicyclic gearbox for a turbine propulsion of a megayacht is one of the highlights in his professional career.
