Calculation Base
WN4 software calculates dimensions, tolerances,
measurement and stresses for SAE Involute Splines
according to ANSI B92.1 and ANSI B92.1b. WN4
uses imperial units; metric units are supported as
well. The program was designed to calculate spline
fit types "Flat Root Side Fit" and "Fillet Root Side
Fit" as well as "Major Diameter Side Fit". Pressure
angle can be 30°, 37,5° or 45°. Normal Circular Pitch
can be selected between "2.5 / 5" and "128 / 256".

Clearance, Tolerance
According to ANSI B92.1, WN4 calculates
admissible deviation and tolerance. Additionally, you
can select the appropriate spline fit class, if you
choose calculation according to ANSI B92.1b.When
entering centerline runout, WN4 calculates required
clearance.
Measurement
Defined by dimensions and tolerance class, WN4
calculates span width and dimensions over/between
pins (min, max, mean value). Number of teeth
measured, and pin diameter may be changed.

Strength Calculation
WN4 calculates compressive stress, spline teeth
shear stress, hoop stress, bending stress, torsional
shear stress and equivalent stress according to "De-
sign Guide for Involute Splines", SAE 1994. The pro-
gram generates error messages, if allowable material
values are overridden. Material values, application
factors and wear life factors can be selected from
tables, or you can enter the values directly.

Production Drawing
Drawing tables with dimensions and tolerances
according to ANSI B92.1 are generated by WN4,
together with a draft of shaft or hub, and ISO 7200
drawing header. Drawings may be printed on any
Windows printer, or exported to CAD as DXF or IGES
file.

Tooth Contact
Drawings with teeth, tooth gap, tooth contact, and
tool profile are displayed on screen.

CAD Interface
True-scale drawings of involute splines and tool
geometry can be exported to CAD as DXF or IGES
file, as well as a table with the spline data according
to ANSI B92.1.

User Interface
The dialogue windows of WN4 allow even the less
experienced PC user to find his way around the
program quickly. WN4 provides users with a help
text wherever they are in the program. When the
demo mode is selected, WN4 runs through a demo
program in which an example calculation is
performed. WN4 contains auxiliary pictures with
geometrical signs and formulas used by the program.

System Requirements
WN4 is available as 32-bit app or as 64-bit app for
Windows 7, 8, Windows 10.

Scope of Delivery
Program with user manual (pdf), example
applications and help images, non-expiring license
for unlimited time use with update rights.

Software Maintenance
HEXAGON Software is continuously improved and
updated. Registered users are regularly kept informed
of updates and new editions.

Guarantee
HEXAGON gives a 24 month guarantee on full
functionality of the software.
