Gears are an integral and necessary component in our day to day lives. They are present in the satellites we communicate with, automobiles and bicycles we travel with. Gears have been around for hundreds of years and their shapes, sizes, and uses are limitless. For the vast majority of our history gears have been understood only functionally. That is to say, the way they transmit power and the size they need to be to transmit that power have been well known for many years. It was not until recently that humans began to use mathematics and engineering to more accurately and safely design these gears. Bevel gears are widely used because of their suitability towards transferring power between nonparallel shafts at almost any angle or speed. The American Gear Manufacturing Association (AGMA) has developed standards for the design, analysis, and manufacture of bevel gears. The bending stress equation for bevel gear teeth is obtained from the Lewis bending stress equation for a beam and bending stress value derive for the spiral bevel gear, straight teeth bevel gear and zerol bevel gear. For above mentioned gear comparison between analytical value and value obtain by the ANSYS Workbench 14.0.
