Multi spur gear

Description
This is an add-in for Autodesk® Fusion®. Selecting multiple pitch circles, it places spur gears at the location of those pitch circles. It also automatically meshes the spur gears together.
- Pitch circles in a meshing relationship cause the spur gears to be rotated and positioned at an angle of meshing.
- Whenever there is a combination of pitch circles touching each other, multiple combinations can be converted to spur gears in a single operation.
- The sketch plane for drawing pitch circles is not limited to the XY plane. Pitch circles drawn on any plane can be converted.
- Each spur gear is created as a separate component. Therefore, it is possible to set up motion links between spur gears.
- Gear trains can create external and internal gears.
easy to use and awesome method of just selecting a circle. works stable despite all changes and updates of the Fusion API. however, i am missing the option of different tooth profiles, for example cycloid gears. internal gears also do not work. you can use an outer gear as a negative to make an inner gear, but then the backlash would need to be negative which cannot be executed by the Add-In.
This is an extremely useful tool. In the first day of use it solved three separate issues that I was having in one of my projects. Note: I found it to be easier to create the gears in a separate NEW project, Save, then insert it into the desired project.
I'd like to see a version of this that could create a timing gear/belt assembly.
Works as shown,would like to see the add in pick up the default document units rather than keeping to metric.
Custom tooth configuration would also be a nice addition.
Thank you
I love the plugin :) It's super easy to create gers with it :) I would like to see the ability to save settings. Or you could edit or replace a gear. Currently you have to delete the gear completely and regenerate it. Of course the settings are lost :(
Thank you
Easy to Use. Perfect for Beginners like me.
Thank you
Thanks for your work on it.
Thank you.
Je to v pořádku a pomůže to.
Thank you
I've been looking for something this easy to use for a while, it's obviously still in development but what's there is good.
keep it up
Thank you.
Thank you.
the way it does the gears is really cool simple then it seems really well done especially for 3d printing i just wish it managed the internal gears to be able to do planetary boxes
Thank you.
Thank you. For internal gears, a similar structure should be possible if the hole diameter is larger than the outer diameter of the gear. However, I have not been able to confirm whether the gears mesh exactly.
