description During the planetary gearbox design process, the issue of light-weighting has been studied using various methods. To get better results from light-weighting, it is necessary for new methods to be considered to deal with this problem. This study proposes the multi-strategy optimized sparrow search algorithm (MSOSSA) that employs five strategies to improve the ability to generate high-quality initial solutions, convergence ability and speed, and the quality of the solution. In the application, the volume of the gearbox is reduced by 6.39%, and the difference in ratio from the previous application is no more than 1.5%. The light-weighting problem of the gearbox is effectively solved. Compared to the other two algorithms, the MSOSSA is six times more likely to produce a high-quality initial solution in a set of 30 runs. The speed of convergence and the ability to converge and generate global optima are the best of the three.
