The Gear tool makes it easy to create precision gears for your CNC projects directly in Designer.
Create spur gears, internal ring gears, and rack gears by entering the number of teeth, pitch diameter, and pitch — Designer automatically calculates the remaining values for you. You can also adjust pressure angle, board diameter, cutting bit, and the size of the tabs that hold the gear in place during machining.
