Software for Sliding Key Joints according to DIN 6892

(C) Copyright 1994-2009 by HEXAGON Software, Berlin



WN3 software calculates the load-bearing capacity of a sliding key joint in accordance with DIN 6892 (release 1998). The dimensions for the parallel key in accordance with DIN 6885 and ANSI B17.1, as well as material values for sliding key, shaft and hub can easily be taken from the integrated data base. The complete printout, table and drawings of the sliding key, shaft groove and hub groove can be printed out.

Calculation

In pre-dimensioning the shaft diameter can be calculated from nominal torque, yield point of the shaft and hub material and application factor and, then an appropriate sliding key can be selected from the data base. In recalculation, in accordance with DIN 6892, the following are taken into account: maximum torque, load distribution factor, adhesive force factor (for press fits), additional bending moment, load aligment change factor and load peak frequency factor. The support factor and hardness influence factor for shaft, hub and sliding key are automatically selected from the data base by WN3. Safety margins against breakage due to maximum and equivalent torque for sliding key, shaft and hub are calculated.

Parallel Key Data Base

WN3's scope of delivery includes a data base containing all parallel key dimensions in accordance with DIN 6885 (pages 1, 2 and 3) and ANSI B17.1. The data base file in dbf format can be modified and extended as required by the user.

Material Data Base

The material for shaft, hub and sliding key can be selected from a data base with about 1000 material entries.

Printout

The calculation results can be printed out in a detailed printout or on a one-page excerpt.

CAD Interface

A true-scale drawing of the sliding key as well as section drawings of the shaft and hub with the appropriate key groove can be exported directly to CAD via the DXF or IGES interfaces, as well as a drawing table with the most important data.
