Subject: Info about asymmetric gears

As well known, over 90% of all power gear trains have only one main direction for torque transmission. Asymmetric
gears have the teeth with different pressure angles on their flanks and aimed to improve a performance in one
direction. For a number of years now I have been involved in the R&D and design of involute gearing including
asymmetric tooth profiles. Outside of my own experience, I have been unsuccessful in finding pertinent references
about asymmetric gearing. In the spirit of gaining more knowledge about this very promising gearing approach, I
would appreciate any references others might have concerning actual design and use of these gears. I would also
like to discuss this technology with others interested in the concept.

Sincerely,

Alex Kapelevich
