I came acrost this on the net, and thought to shair it here with you all.
I haven't tried this software - but seems straight forward:
http://www.realhamradio.com/gearhome.htm
Its only $50 bucks so might be a cheap investment. I'm considering - but my wallet is a bit empty just now...
It looks interesting because it goes from gear design straight to gcode. No intermediate steps. If all you want is a SPUR gear.
Note: it seems set up for milling a gear not using a hobbing tool (as I understand more accurate, faster, etc).
Also, there are plug-ins for Rhino and SolidWorks too. Haven't tried those either but seems like a member on the zone wrote/used the Rhino script. |
