Issue: Unable to request a license because my university email is not recognized. Fix: Contact KISSsoft support directly. They often accept alternative verification (e.g., a letter from the dean). Gear design (spur, helical, bevel, hypoid, worm gears)

Full Geometry Calculation: Design spur, helical, bevel, and worm gears with accurate tooth geometry.
Strength Analysis: Perform calculations for tooth root stress (according to ISO 6336/DIN 3990) and pitting resistance.
Variation Tools: Use the "Variation" feature to see how changing the module, pressure angle, or helix angle affects the safety factors in real time.
3D Export: You can generate a 3D model of your gear pair and export it (usually as a STEP file) to import into SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or CATIA.
