In DIN 3960, axial distance errors are defined as a deviation between the target/actual value.
An error that changes the distance between two axes changes the way the gears mesh and has a negative effect on the overlap ratio.
Even small pitch errors lead to increased noise in the gearbox.
在DIN 3960中，轴向距离误差被定义为目标值/实际值之间的偏差。
改变两个轴之间距离的误差会改变齿轮的啮合方式，并对重叠率产生负面影响。
即使是很小的间距误差也会导致齿轮箱的噪音增加。
