Abstract
Gear is a key component which finds many applications in numerous engineering sectors and its design plays an important role in a power transmission system. This paper presents the new design concept of a gear tooth profile using free form curve in order to reduce bending stress. The designed tooth profile is tested with a series of simulation results which show the effect in reduction of stress under the variation of face width and speed. The results obtained from simulation test are satisfactory and effective from previous one.
