AGMA 942-A12 (R2017)
Metallurgical Specifications for Powder Metallurgy, PM, Steel Gearing
This document provides the critical metallurgical characteristics of powder metallurgy, PM, gears that will ensure the metallurgical quality of the teeth. The format of the document has been modeled on AGMA 923-B05, Metallurgical Specifications for Steel Gearing, and may be considered a companion document for gear designers seeking the same type of metallurgical features in PM steel gears as found in wrought gears. By using AGMA 923-B05 as a guide the gear designer can easily evaluate a PM material-process system based on the familiar features of wrought steel gears. This information sheet is dedicated to Howard Sanderow. His participation and inspiration led to the development of this information sheet. His thoroughness and enthusiasm for the powder metallurgy industry, along with his contributions, as well as the contributions of his fellow committee members brought out the best from the committee as a whole. The first draft of AGMA 942-A12 was made in May, 2007. It was approved by the AGMA membership in August 16, 2012.
