Presented paper examines the effect of the basic gearbox parameter on the surface normal velocity of the gearbox top cover. Firstly, in order to validate the inputs and results of the whole methodology a single stage gearbox was designed and manufactured. Secondly, a dynamic model is built for the single stage gearbox and each part of it is validated by an appropriate experiment. After the good correlation of the model and measurement, an additional simulation is performed to verify specified influences. The investigation focuses on finding the best conditions between thickness of gearbox housing top cover and dimensions of shafts, which are represented by the torsional stiffness. The method described is able to determine the impact of each modification, thus it can be useful at the design phase and also during measurement or investigation of an existent problem.
