pyGear

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.

Features

spur and helical gears
external and internal gears
STEP and VRML support
according to industry standards

Project Samples

evoloid pinion created by hobbing simulation

external helical gear created by hobbing simulation

tooth form coordinates generated by hobbing simulation

There is no compiled version, although what problems can I take the same pyinstaller or cx_Freeze

The most accurate and flexible gear generator I have seen. Here's hoping the other kinds of gear get implemented!
