This paper represents a review on modification of spur gear design using different optimization technique. Gearing is most important for mechanical power transmission system. Gear design involves choosing of specific design, specific character, specific material, analysis of force and mechanical properties. The main purpose of spur gear design is to reduce transmission error and improves efficiency of power transmission system. Optimization is used to get optimal design parameters to maximize the power transmitting capacity of mechanical system.
