# PC-DMIS Gear 2.4: Introduction

PC-DMIS™ Gear is a completely independent software package that, through automation, uses PC-DMIS 4.1 or higher to measure External Spur, Helical, Internal Spur and Bevel gears. PC-DMIS Gear is designed for simplicity and to give you a straightforward measurement experience. Measurement results are displayed graphically using the new Gear Report window.

New! PC-DMIS Gear version 2.1 and higher combines the capability that was previously accomplished using two separate applications: PC-DMIS Gear (external and internal spur, helical gears) and Spiral Bevel Gear (bevel gears).

This help file covers the following topics:

- Getting Started

- PC-DMIS Gear: User Interface

- Parameters for Cylinder Gears

- Parameters for Bevel Gears

- Appendix A: Using the Gear Report Window

Important! For gear terminology that is used throughout this help file that may be unclear, consult the appropriate gear standard for detailed information. The four widely-used gear standards are AGMA 2000-A88, DIN 3962, JIS B 1702 and ISO 1328. While similar, they also differ from each other. Because of their differences, this documentation cannot cover the details for each of these standards. You will need to know the information about your particular standard in order to measure your gear and properly analyze your data. For example, the "ANSI/AGMA Standard 1012-F90; Gear Nomenclature, Definitions with Terms and Symbols" could be used for reference.
