GearTeq™
provides the designer with advanced tools for creating solid models of
drive components and assemblies. GearTeq™ is a new program that offers
advanced features. Work with multiple parts and assemblies and
more...GearTeq is a add-on for SolidWorks and AutoDesk Inventor.
Some
of GearTeq's enhanced features:
Work on Multiple types of
components in the same assembly See any changes to the geometry
instantly on the display window Multiple gears created as a single
SolidWorks part Internal splines can be used as a bore on all
components Modifying CAD parts created by GearTeq is very easy Automatically
create assemblies in SolidWorks with proper mating Ten standard
planetary gear systems are available with a few clicks High ratio
cycloid set (a single eccentrically mounted planet and a fixed internal
gear) On screen animations to help you visualize the working gears Warnings
when GearTeq detects something in your design that may not be proper 3D
wire frame with some surface shading Create XY outputs of the
involute points in Excel and text files Create data sheets using
Excel or text files A description of each parameter is in the lower
section of the property grid Involute profile modification using
linear or parabolic deviation for spur and helical gears Automatic
balance of addendum modification for spur and helical gears Create
additional tooth profiles that take into consideration the shrinkage of
molded plastic gear teeth Deviation chart for DIN splines, hub space
width/shaft tooth thickness fit An easy to use sizing for standard
spur gears Programmed on a platform that will allow greater
enhancements in the future
This release is compiled for x32
operating systems (it will run fine on your new x64 machine) but it will
be available as an x64 program at a later date. To start GearTeq use
the Window> Start All Programs's menu.
The first time you
start GearTeq, go to Help>GearTeq Quick Start Guide to view a PDF for
concise instructions on getting started.

encounter. We want your feedback!
While GearTeq as no intention
of replacing your CAD system it does want to provide some of the
functionality you have become accustomed to. With CAD like features, you
can view components with drag, rotate and multiple zooms options. You
can also drive the components for immediate animation!
