This integration enhances the design process by leveraging the strength of full drivetrain system analysis in Romax and detailed analysis of bevel and hypoid gears in GEMS, ultimately leading to increased durability, efficiency and improved NVH characteristics. This data exchange brings expert-level bevel and hypoid gear design and analysis into the Romax environment, whilst considering Gleason’s engineering know-how. Romax provides accurate information about gear misalignments, considering the complete gearbox system including the housing and accounting for deflections of all components.
This information is passed into GEMS, which is then able to perform detailed analysis and optimisation of bevel and hypoid gear pairs. This partnership significantly enhances the design process, enabling more system-based calculations, leading to designs with increased durability, efficiency, and improved NVH characteristics.
The products within the Romax suite that integrate with this solution are Enduro, Spectrum, Energy and Spin.

Romax and VI-grade have developed a process to perform an interactive evaluation of an EV virtual prototype using the VI-grade NVH Simulator. Together, we combined on one side, CAE simulation data to characterise the EV powertrain noise sources due to the electric motor and gearbox, and, on the other side, transfer functions measured on a surrogate vehicle to propagate the sound sources to the driver ears. We then demonstrate how to use this virtual prototype for interactive sound quality evaluation as you would do when driving a vehicle, but this is here performed even before having access to a physical prototype.
