Gear Design Calculator
Description:
The “Gear Design Calculator” application is used to design andobtain main dimension of spur and helical gears. Easy and versatiletool to calculate ratio and design new gear. There are manydefinitions related to gear mechanism such as gear ratio, module,backlash and much more. This app also contain a General Gear RatioChart which helps you to find circular pitch and module accordingto diameter pitch which is required This App also contain all thedefinitions related to Gear Mechanism.

Features:
The following values can be calculated with appropriate values:
For spur gear:
• Module
• Gear Ratio
• Diametral Pitch
• Pitch Diameter
• Outside Diameter
• Number of Teeth
• Addendum
• Dedeudum
• Tooth Thickness
• Working Depth
• Center Distance
• Circular Pitch
For Helical gear:
• Gear Ratio
• Module
• Normal Diameter Pitch
• Pitch Diameter
• Outside Diameter
• Helical Angle
• Addendum
• Lead

Application:
You can use this application “Gear Design Calculator” to designgear of:
Automotive, Blenders, Converting, Conveyors, Electronics, FeederDrives, Food Processing, Home & Garden, Indexing, MarineSteering, Material Handling, Medical, Mixers, Movie Animation,Office Machines, Packaging, Paper Processing, Power TransmissionDistributors, Printing, Punch Presses, Robotics,Semiconductors.

Limitations:
- No support for inch. Calculations only in millimeters!
- Pi is assumed to be 3.14.

A gear or cogwheel is a rotating machine part having cut teeth orcogs, which mesh with another toothed part in order to transmittorque, in most cases with teeth on the one gear being of identicalshape and often also with that shape on the other gear. There aremany types of gears such as spur, helical etc. Spur gear the mostcommon type used. Tooth contact is primarily rolling, with slidingoccurring during engagement and disengagement. Helical gear is acylindrical shaped gear with helicoids teeth. Helical gears operatewith less noise and vibration than spur gears. At any time, theload on helical gears is distributed over several teeth, resultingin reduced wear. They are widely used in industry.

Caution!
This app has been designed for school training, industrialmechanic, machinist, tool makers, machine builders, technicians andstudents.
