What’s new in R20?
- Gear root stress improvements – calculation of virtual strain gauges in the normal plane in addition to transverse, for easier comparison with experiments, and gear root stress mesh properties for proxy planets to speed up modelling.
- Improvements to parametric study and batch running – additional variables, actions and results, mostly related to gears and gear root stress analysis (generating profile shift, additional gear mesh results, gear rim thickness, gear scuffing, sinusoidal pitch error, root stress graphs, settings and image results, phase of input to output TE harmonics, and bearing axial clearance). These new options further expand Enduro’s capability for automation and optimisation, particularly for gear design.
- Connection manager introduced to speed up the modelling of complex shaft arrangements, with automatic detection of connection locations, and to aid auditing of connections to reduce modelling errors.
- Memory and speed improvements for FE components resulting in faster model loading, managing of large FE components and more efficient memory usage.
- Pressure velocity plot available as part of gear micro geometry results allowing users to study the shear forces acting on the gear lubricant to assess potential thermal degradation, damage and loss.
- Import reference geometry directly from CAD for effective visualisation and communication.
- New bearing database from Nachi-Fujikoshi.
- Additional summary reports for backlash and material properties, useful for model auditing and checking.
- Clip selection and view manager improvements.
- Additional minor enhancements for gears and bearings.

“We use [Romax software] for problem solving and for system optimization from concept to production design. Perfect components don’t always equal a perfect system when combined. That’s why we use [Romax software]: it shows where you can have the most impact and where the benefits lie”
“The way [Romax software] integrates with other software packages also saves us time. Its ability to provide interfaces and to share results for interpretation by our engineers is another reason we use it internationally”
“We hadn’t previously experienced such a large number of complex over-lapping projects, with many having to be advanced at the same time. For a mid-sized company with limited resources, it was clearly an issue, but one that computer-aided engineering (CAE) technologies could help us address.”
“We initially chose [Romax software] to design the basic structure of a new transmission more efficiently. This has actually evolved into today’s SKYACTIV transmission. We chose Romax because it was the only software that satisfied our needs.”

What you’ll learn:
- How Romax Enduro can help you get a really good understanding of the structural behaviour and durability performance of a drivetrain system
- How you can easily make design changes to improve the performance
- A brief overview of more advanced analysis capabilities such as micro-geometry analysis, root stress analysis, and how the micro-geometry results feed back into the rating results
- How Enduro can interface to other Romax and third party tools which makes it easy to integrate into an efficient CAE-led process.
