This application is intended to be a tool for easy, almost automatic, creation and calculation of gear transmission finite element models. It consists of a geometry and mesh generator based on GMSH and a finite element model based on GETFEM++.

A python gear generator that serves as CAE/CAD-preprocessor for involute gears based on pythonOCC. It allows for the computation of dynamic properties and the creation of exact geometries from a minimal input set. PyGear can simulate the tool geometry and kinematics of standard gear hobbing tools to generate precise flank, tooth root and tip geometries.

Allows one to program fablab (factory and/or laboratory) in the same way as we program computer. Imagine commands like: "dim screw12 as new screw" or "mold(form_piston_081212, brass)" or ''gear(3)=lasercut(steel2,"biggear.gc")". This approach will let us program highly automated and self-deploying or even self-replicating factories. I am more engineer than programmer and just beginner in python. So it looks like community help will be needed :)

The aim of this project is to develop a gear design program, which will be able to utilise any known contemporary tooth profile and perform strength calculations on it. A subsequent goal will be to include a life prediction functionality.
