Drago\, P.E.\n\n\n\nRaymond J. Drago is Chief Engineer of Drive Systems Technology\, Inc. (DST)\, a mechanical power transmission consulting organization that he founded in 1976. Mr. Drago also worked for the Boeing Company – Helicopters Division until his retirement after 37 years of service. Currently Mr. Drago is involved in the analysis\, design\, manufacture\, assembly\, and testing of many gear systems. In his role with DST\, Mr. Drago is active in all areas of mechanical power transmission\, including the design and analysis of drive systems in a very diverse field of application from heart pumps to very large mining & mill gears. He has used his 58 years of gear technology experience to prepare and deliver more than 150 Technical Papers and 385 courses dealing with various aspects of gear design and analysis. \n\n\n\nI started working at Boeing in 1967 and continued until my retirement in 2004. I started Drive Systems Technology in 1976 as a part time activity while still working at Boeing (with Boeing’s knowledge and approval\, under strict guidelines) which eventually grew to the point where I retired early from Boeing in order to pursue DST as a full-time activity. \n\n\n\n\nPhoto Release\n\n\n\nMPMA may use photographs\, survey responses\, and testimonials from its events in promotional materials.

SUMMARY:104: How to Read and Interpret a Gear Inspection Report
DESCRIPTION:Course Description\n\n\n\nFormat: Live Online Training \n\n\n\n\n\nDate: December 2\, 2027 \n\n\n\n\nThursday\, December 2 – 12:00-4:00 pm ET\n\n\n\n\nBeginner Level – 104\n\n\n\nThis half-day online seminar is intended to provide you with a thorough understanding of the information contained within a typical gear inspection report. Specifically\, we will look at the contents and meaning of the information contained within the gear charts\, as well as the techniques used by the gear measurement system to assess gear quality. We will also discuss how to interpret the results and what corrective actions may be considered if the quality of a particular gear is unsatisfactory. \n\n\n\nYou will earn 3.5 clock hours upon completion of the course and they will be listed on your certificate of completion.\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the information contained in a typical gear inspection report\, common to a GMM\n\n\n\nComprehend how to read this information and relate it to the design and requirements of the gear being inspected\n\n\n\nAppreciate the relationship of the results of the gear inspection charts and report with the quality requirements as stated in the design or drawing\n\n\n\nDiscuss some of the new and automated gear design systems\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister now\n\n\n\nCourse outline (PDF)\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Rates\n\n\n\nMEMBER RATE\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Registrant – $350(Deadline until 9/8/27) \n\n\n\nRegular Registrant – $375(Deadline: 9/9/27 – 11/4/27) \n\n\n\nLate Registrant – $390(Deadline: 11/5/27 – 11/18/27) \n\n\n\nNON-MEMBER RATE\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Registrant – $450(Deadline until 9/8/27) \n\n\n\nRegular Registrant – $475(Deadline: 9/9/27 – 11/4/27) \n\n\n\nLate Registrant – $490(Deadline: 11/5/27 – 11/18/27) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho Should Attend\n\n\n\nThis course will appeal to anyone who is interested in the measurement and inspection results of a GMM inspection and the associated gear charts. \n\n\n\nInstructor\n\n\n\n\nWilliam “Mark” McVea\, PhD\, P.E.\n\nDr. William Mark McVea\, P.E.\, is currently President and Principal Engineer of KBE+\, Inc. where he and his team design and develop complete powertrains for automotive and off-highway vehicles.
