Description
This tool allows you to create a 2D profile of an involute gear. This 2D profile is fully parametric, and can be padded with the PartDesign Pad feature.

Usage
- Go to the menu Part Design →
Involute gear.... - Set the Involute parameters.
- Click OK.
- The involute gear is created outside of the active body. Drag and drop it into a body for the application of further features like padding.
Parameters
Number of teeth
Sets the number of teeth.
Modules
Pitch diameter divided by the number of teeth.
Pressure angle
Acute angle between the line of action and a normal to the line connecting the gear centers. Default is 20 degrees. (More info)
High precision
True or false
