Gear

I am a 4th year student studying in PSG College of technology .

1.Create a New Design:

• Open Fusion 360 and create a new design.

2.Sketch the Gear Profile:

• Start a sketch on the XY plane.
• Use the "Circle" tool to draw a circle for the pitch diameter of your gear.
• Use the "Line" tool to create a line representing the profile of one tooth.

3.Add Involute Curve:

• Use the "Spline" tool to draw an involute curve. This curve is essential for the gear tooth shape.
• Ensure the involute curve is tangent to the tooth profile line.

4.Complete Tooth Profile:

• Continue the tooth profile using the involute curve and connect it to the base circle.

5.Create the Full Gear Profile:

• Use the "Circular Pattern" tool to replicate the tooth profile around the pitch circle for a complete gear.

6.Extrude the Gear:

• Exit the sketch and use the "Extrude" tool to give thickness to your gear. Specify the extrusion distance.

7.Add Fillets:

• Fillet the edges of the gear teeth and any sharp corners. This helps improve the durability of the gear.

8.Hole for the Shaft:

• Create a hole at the center for the shaft. Use the "Hole" tool and select the center point.

9.Export or Use Within Fusion 360:

• You can either export it for manufacturing or use it in assemblies within Fusion 360.

Supplies

By using CAM software use the stl file and machine the gear profile with a cylindrical workpiece in a 5-Axis cnc maachine.

Step 1: Modify the Cuting Profiles Based on Requirements of the Workpiece

Use the stl file to machine the component using milling tool of 0.5mm diameter for precise maching.
