Designed a 9-speed gearbox for the turret head of a lathe machine operating in the spindle speed range of 1000 rpm to 30 rpm and operated by a motor at 720 rpm. The project involved designing all individual elements and parameters of the gearbox.

The main subparts of the gearbox assembly involved:

• Optimal Gear Pair Selection and Design-Using Buckingham Dynamic Load Principle

• Shaft Design - Optimum Shear Force and Torsional Moment Parameters

• Bearing Design and Selection

• Assembly Layout (Optimal Gearbox Design - Multispeed Gearboxes using Speed Diagrams)

• Gearbox Casing - PSG Data Book Standards

• Synchronizer Rings and Forks

All the component parameters were calculated, and the components were generated and assembled using Solid Modelling.
