Re: Gear question CAD

Indeed their is; it is called "Design Accelerator."

When you are in an assembly, change your browser drop-down (the title) to Design Accelerator, and you should see a new set of tools in the toolbar palette. One will be a gear set generator.

Of course, the FIRST CAD library is also a good place to find iParts as well.

I have the circular and diametral pitches,addendum, dedendum - and practically everything else.
Does such a plugin or some extention of CAD exist that i can do this quickly - or do I need to do model this myself?
