Important! Refer to the appropriate gear standard to clarify any gear terminology used throughout this document. The four widely-used gear standards are AGMA 2000-A88, DIN 3962, JIS B 1702, and ISO 1328. While similar, these standards differ from each other. This documentation does not cover the details for each standard. You will need to know the information about the standard used for the given gear in order to measure and evaluate the measured data. For example, you could use the "ANSI/AGMA Standard 1012-F90; Gear Nomenclature, Definitions with Terms and Symbols" for reference.
