Romax 21

Romax is the trusted industry standard software solution for powertrain durability simulation and optimisation.

  • Bearing Dynamics Desktop Application and Support for Cylindrical Roller Bearings: our Bearing Dynamics capability is now available as a desktop application, for analysis of failure modes not considered by the standard methods, with an updated UI and support for new bearing types. 
  • 2D Gearbox Modelling Worksheet: a new system-level worksheet with drag-and-drop tools, allowing intuitive, fast modelling which is easy-to-use, even for beginners and non-experts.  
  • Parametric Study and Batch Running Improvements: new actions, targets and results available for gears, bearings and to allow genetic algorithms to be used for full gearbox optimisations. This includes comprehensive targets and results of raw and actual values of viscosity ratio and contamination factor, useful for detailed analysis of the influence of lubricant additives in different load cases in an automated way. 
  • Reporting of bearing passing frequencies and orders: The passing frequencies found in rolling bearings are commonly used to identify the source of defects. Rolling bearing passing frequencies and orders are now reported in the Bearing Results worksheet. 
  • JMAG-Express Online Integration: JMAG-Express Online can now be opened from within the Romax environment, so users can generate an electric machine design and import the machine geometry directly into the Romax model as part of an early-stage structural analysis.

Bearing Design

Advanced, integrated analysis of rolling element bearings to give unrivalled insight into bearing performance.

  • Fast parametric modelling of the system and the bearing internal geometry for easy design space exploration
  • Flexible model fidelity from single bearing to complex systems with flexible bearing rings and other structures
  • Enhanced bearing contact analysis featuring a coupled strip model accurately capturing roller edge stresses, end effects, material yield, rib contact, and truncation
  • Time domain bearing skidding analysis capability

Application Optimisation

Easily and quickly build a parametric model of any electro-mechanical system and perform bearing selection and application optimisation with confidence.

  • Accurately model the loading, mounting and thermal conditions and evaluate system loads, deflections, misalignments
  • Quickly and accurately predict element and raceway load and stress distribution, rib contact, edge stress, and contact truncation
  • Evaluate optimum preload/clearance settings and how they are affected by thermal and structural conditions
  • Perform ISO 281 and ISO/TS 16281 ratings, augmented by the enhanced bearing contact model
  • Import and export CAD geometry, mesh and connect finite element components and produce graphics and reports

Better collaboration

Romax Spin works seamlessly across the Romax product family and integrates into your process.
