in the case of touching both sides, i want to make a perfect profile, and adding backlash would be done later, when i am sure that the actual profile is ok.

It can't be right, because when you look at the gear from the side, you see a triange, and you dont use the longest side length in this calculation. I succeeded in making the helical gears by using loft cut tool instead of helical cut tool. Seems like something is off with helical cut tool or...

Thank You for very informative replies. I have changed the helix pitch calculation to "modulus * number_of_teeth * pi / tan( helical_angle)", and the helix profile orientation to "normal" per suggestions and it seems to work very good! I still struggle with the tooth profile though. I create it...

Another example, i tried to remade the healical gears by taking the gear profile straight from spur gears, still no luck.

Good morning. I need to make accurate involute helical gears in Alibre Atom3D. When i construct gear cutout as always and make a straight gear they mesh perfectly. When i use the same sketch and make a helical cut, with a helical pitch calculated from a formula: "reference circle diameter" /...

Have You thought about Prusa Mk3S printer?

You can use the profile tool in the sketch workspace for working parametric linear patterns in sketch. Sketch_pattern by Gregory posted Sep 28, 2021 at 11:30 AM
