Help with custom transmision and gear CAD.
I have been trying to design a custom two speed transmission for our robot. I was planning on using the AndyMark Gen1 transmission as a base model, then replacing the gears with 20 degree pressure angle gears so that we can get the reduction that we wanted. My idea was for a 4:1 shift with the highest being around 7:1 and the lowest being 28:1. I have tried experimenting with the spur gear feature in inventor but I am unable to get it to work. Does anyone know of a guide for this or can anyone help? greatly appreciated.
