The modelling, analysis and refinement of triple step reduction helical gearbox housing was attempted. The initial purpose of the investigations was to evaluate and interpret the structural performance characteristics of the transmission case. Following a relevant research literatures review, it was realized that the vast majority of today’s organisations are experiencing issues with the overall heaviness and stability of their current gearboxes. Therefore, the creation and evaluation of three stage helical transmission coverings have emerged as a key subject of explorations in order to prevent failures and achieve the most efficient model. As a result; various analyses like modal, vibration, harmonic, frequency response, spectrum and static analysis were undertaken on an current helical transmission gear box covering comprising of material Structural Steel A36 and an optimised model of High Carbon Steel and Structural Steel A36 materials for understanding & monitoring the conditional functioning of transmission cover under numerous different applied loading and unloading situations. Finally, depending on drafting, examination and improvement, it was securely established that the redesigned structure with high carbon steel as a material seems to be significantly superior in accordance with current model in terms of robustness, heaviness, harmonics, sturdiness, materials, and affordability.
