Perhaps give us a circuit of your set up.

Thank you Spigor. This is what I was looking for! I wish they wrote this equation black on white in DIN5480, it would have made things easier. Thanks again!

Pilot operated check valve? You need to check what pressure you have on the rod side of the cylinder when you are extending it, so the check valve doesn't open due to back pressure. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=ec6d9862-c016-4081-9d24-d155f5aa0be3&file=cyl1.jpg

Automation Studios - can generate diagrams as well as simulate all components and the whole system.

Gearcutter, I have gone through the standard several times now. It doesn't explain very well how the value of x is determined (profile shift coefficient). How did your program come up with x.m = +0.9? What calculation was done to determine that x = 0.45?

Thanks mate, so the 9g and 9H are not really the driving parameters for the profile shift? So how is it determined in the table above that the profile shift should be +0.9 for external and -0.9 for internal? Thanks for the help!

Thanks gearcutter! Just want to confirm - when the shaft designation states 9g, that means the profile reference line is shifted 0.9mm (profile shift)?

This question was asked in an similar thread (thread406-36822) which is now closed. The question was: Are there any rules to determine exactly when to apply addendum modification to a DIN 5440 involute spline? How is the amount of modification determined? Is this normally given on the drawing as...

Oil seal creates a groove in the shaft over a period of time. What causes this problem? What can be done to reduce or eliminate the problem? Can someone suggest any useful websites on this? Thank you
