how to determine gear width
how to determine gear width
(OP)
While designing a spur gear transfer, I know how to calculate the gear parameters. But how to determine the thickness (crossection thickness) of the two gears, depending you know the material of the gears.
Can someone help me with this.
Thanks

It is free, accurate, and very easy to use.

You will need to get the "e-battery" - they send it immediately to your web address. It dies and you will need another one every 30 days.

Both these sights have great p[ieces of software.
You can download the demo for free, and that should give you enbough operation to enter your gear, loads, and play witht he facewidth.
What sort of loads are you transmitting, what size is the gear, and what material are you using?
