Key formulas (Excel syntax):
' Reference diameter = B4 * B5' Base diameter = (B4 * B5) * COS(RADIANS(30))
' Root diameter – external spline = (B4 * B5) - 2 * B4 * (1.25 - B6)
' Tip diameter – external spline = (B4 * B5) + 2 * B4 * B6 din 5480 spline calculator excel new
' Max space width (internal, fit H) ' Simplified from DIN 5480 Table 10: = (PI() * B4 / 2) + (2 * B4 * B6 * TAN(RADIANS(30))) + (0.018 * B4 ^ 0.5)
