We’ve integrated a lightweight physics engine that lets you spin the assembly with your mouse. You can feel the resistance before the metal ever touches the machine.
Designing precise gears is a cornerstone of mechanical engineering, 3D printing, and robotics. While traditional Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software can be cumbersome for calculating complex involute curves, dedicated gear generators simplify the process. represents the next evolution in web-based and standalone gear design tools.
Clearly displays the ratio between connected gears. gear generator 2 beta
: Users can now start, stop, freeze, and reset animations to visualize mechanical interactions in real-time. Dynamic Speed Modulation
The dev team has included community-driven presets. You can now spawn a "LEGO Technic compatible" gear, a "Herringbone" gear, or a "NEMA 17 stepper mount" gear in seconds. We’ve integrated a lightweight physics engine that lets
The gears—some the size of houses, others as small as a teardrop—have stopped dancing.
: As it is a beta, you may encounter occasional glitches in the animation or save functions. : Users can now start, stop, freeze, and
