Gear Design software with Graphical
User Interface
Abstract
Our project is the development of gear design software with
graphical user interface to assist an engineer or user by
saving time, reducing human, increasing accuracy and precision
and handling the constraints. The software include the designing of
spur and helical gear whereas gear designing is an iterative process
which requires data inputs from immense number of tables, graphs,
charts and figures which are previously tabulated from experimental
data. Moreover constraints have to be fulfilled by the designer. This
software will have the ability to handle all the constraints of
materials, pitch diameters, tooth face width and gears center
distance. The automated software will take user inputs in the form
of source power, input speed (rpm) and output speed (rpm) or gear
ratio and handle constraints very effectively and process out the
perfect gear with all of its dimensions suitable and accurate to the
designer requirements.
