About the Book

For more than 30 years, the book Practical Gear Design, later re-titled the Handbook of Practical Gear Design, has been the leading engineering guide and reference on the subject. Now available again in this revised edition, the book is a detailed, practical guide and reference to gear technology. It covers the design of all types of gears, from those for small mechanisms to large industrial applications. The presentation is designed for easy reference for those involved in practical gear design, manufacture, applications, and problem solving. The text is well-illustrated with clear diagrams and photographs. The many tables provide needed reference data in convenient form.

Review :

This major work . . . should become the bible of the industry, and its guidelines will serve the engineering body responsible for present and future standards of gearing. . . . Recognized nationally and internationally as one of the foremost contributors to the advancement of gear design, Mr. Dudley . . . received the E. P. Connell Award, which is the highest honor of the American Gear Manufacturers Association.
—William W. Ingraham, Executive Director, American Gear Manufacturers Association

"…the only and the most comprehensive and updated reference source book available in the meantime for gear practitioners. … of practical interest for both for gear practitioners as well as for gear theoreticians. ... recommended for university students, both graduate and postgraduate."
—Prof. Joseph A. Bukhbinder
