MAY COURSES


Gear Noise Data Interpretation and Diagnostics


Date: 6th & 7th May 2026

Time: 9:30 – 12:30

Platform: TEAMS 

Tutor: Jarek Rosinski - Transmission Dynamics

Fee: BGA Member Free / Non Member £350*


Noise and vibrations are omnipresent, and while they may seem straightforward to interpret in some scenarios, industrial applications often introduce complexities that require a deeper understanding. This seminar explores the theoretical foundations of noise and vibrations, their sources, modes of transmission, and their implications for both systems and their surroundings. This seminar is designed to share the knowledge and tools necessary to interpret and diagnose noise and vibrations effectively in various industrial applications.

 


Introduction to Rolling Element Bearings


Date: 12th, 13th & 14th May 2026

Time: 9:30am - 12:30pm

Tutor: Rob Lambert (Design Unit) & Kevin Delehanty (SKF)

Venue: TEAMS

Fee: BGA Member Free / Non Member £350*


Bearings are an integral part of all mechanical power transmissions and rolling element bearings are often the most accurate component on the transmission. A good understanding of how they work is essential to those involved in transmission design, manufacture and assembly activities.

We will be examining both as run and damaged bearings which illustrate common failure modes.

 


Gear Manufacture


Please note this is an in person course, spaces are limited and allocated on a first come first served basis.


Date: 20th May 2026

This seminar is aimed at engineers, technicians and individuals involved in gear specification/procurement who wish to gain a sound overview of the manufacturing methods and process available to the gear designer or manufacturer. The seminar will cover not only the processes available but place some specific focus on the link between gear design and the production methodology.
