Axomek: machine-element calculations for AI agents
A browser-based engineering tool for modeling shafts, bearings, gears, joints, and related components, with calculations tied to named DIN, ISO, and VDI standards.
- For
- Mechanical engineers designing shafts, bearings, gears, and joints
- Worth noticing
- A pulley example shows bearing life fall below its minimum, then recover after the bearing is moved.
Field notes
Projects are stored as plain .axm.json files, which the axm command line or MCP server can modify; the browser app follows changes to the same file. The page demonstrates an overhung-pulley case where a heavier belt pull pushes a bearing below its required life, then a small position change restores it. It lists calculation families and standards including ISO 281, ISO/TS 16281, ISO 6336, and VDI 2230, with guides covering methods and limits.
