Gear Generator Customised
Print Profile(1)
Description
The Gear Generator is a script helping to create customisable gears using Bambu Parametric Model Maker, a powerful 3D CAD modelling tool. This script allows users to generate gears with various parameters, making it a versatile tool for designers, engineers, and hobbyists.
Features:
Customisation Parameters:
- Number of Teeth: Adjust the number of teeth on the gear to fit your specific design needs.
- Gear Thickness: Specify the thickness of the gear to ensure it meets structural requirements.
- Gear Radius: Define the radius of the gear for precise sizing.
- Hub Diameter: Set the diameter of the central hub to match the shaft it will be mounted on.
- Hole Diameter: Determine the diameter of the central hole to fit various mounting requirements.
- Gear Inner Hole Diameter: A new parameter allowing customisation of the inner hole diameter.
- Helix Angle: Adjust the helix angle for creating helical gears or set to 0 for straight teeth gears.
Modular Design: The script is built with modular functions, such as the gear and tooth modules, making it easy to modify and extend for different types of gears and configurations.
Easy Integration: The gear generator can be integrated into larger designs or used as a standalone component in various mechanical and engineering projects.
Printing recommendations:
Material:
PLA : Good for prototypes and low-stress applications. Easy to print with minimal warping.
PETG: Offers a good balance of strength and flexibility. Resistant to wear and impact.
ABS/ASA: Ideal for high-stress applications due to its durability and wear resistance.
Layer Height:
0.2 mm for a balance of detail and print speed.
Infill Density - depend where and how gears will be used for
20-40%: For a good balance between strength and material usage.
50-100%: For gears that will be under high stress or load.
Infill Pattern:
Grid, Triangular or cross hatch: These patterns provide good strength and support for functional gears.
Wall Thickness:
1.2 mm (3 perimeters): Ensures strong and durable gear teeth.
Top/Bottom Layers:
4-6 layers: Ensures a solid top and bottom surface, preventing weak spots.
