d. Gear transmission two-point-support system
A shaft is generally supported by two or more bearings. A machine is a collection of these assemblies.
As a shaft model, the gear transmission mechanism is the simplest and most common. The Menu entitled Two-point-support System is available, by which loads the bearing is exposed to, service life, safety factor can be obtained based on gear specifications, location, and operation conditions.
