3D Modelling a Spur Gearing with Solid Edge

Abstract

The software Solid Edge software is a useful 3D computer aided design (CAD) running under Windows. The commands and icons of Solid Edge software offer the possibility to design various solids. In this paper are presented the steps that guide at 3D modeling a spur gearing with straight teeth, using the software Solid Edge. Thus, in order to realize the model’s purpose it is necessary to interference 2D with 3D and to know the theoretic geometric elements for a spur gearing.
