Re: Part nomenclature for COTS gear CAD library
Why not use both?
For example, A-tooth-bore-part number could be a given AndyMark gear (AM also uses AM-XXXX as their part numbers, so that could be used instead of having a separate manufacturer tag). Using a W or a V instead of an A could denote WCP or VEXPro, respectively.
So, if I was looking for a 20 tooth gear to fit on a CIM, I'd look at the 2nd number and the third number, then look at the 1st for manufacturer and 4th for ordering.
