    long addendum gear

    Yes well I knew I was over my head when I saw the long addendum and all the gear generating software at my disposal blew up. There is no existing drawing that shows the theoretical new tooth profile. I thank you all for your input and I have already contacted a gear manufacturer about a DXF profile.

    long addendum gear

    What I'm hoping to achieve is to simulate the movement of the teeth in mesh to try and determine why they are vibrating, possibly due to gear wear & root depth. It is suspected that the pinion flank is being hit upon engagement.

    long addendum gear

    Thank you all for the information. The gear actually has 216 teeth. I have aCAD & Inventor so I can model the gears and then do an analysis. I suspected the tooth thickness was increased.

    long addendum gear

    Thank you for the quick replies; I have little experience developing gear profiles, especially non-standard ones. The mating bull gear has 216 teeth and the pinions outside diameter is 20in. I don't have the diameter for the bull gear but I have approximated a working depth of 2 1/8in. What I...

    long addendum gear

    I'm trying to get an involute profile for a non-standard pinion that turns a rotary kiln for a pulp company. The given information I have is: Outside D = 20in Diametral Pitch = 1 # of teeth = 17 Pitch Diameter = 17" 150% High addendum Pressure Angle = 20° Center Distance = 116.5in The long...
