Hypoid gears

[tabusca_andi]

Hello,

I'm trying to design a pair of hypoid gears and I was wondering if there is any kind of tool or add-in in fusion to do that. It could also be very helpful if someone could refer me to somewhere where somebody explains the math behind hypoid gears so that I can make them myself.

Hi! Here are a few related discussions.

The most difficult portion of the design is to figure out the path. Once the path is determined, you may use Solid Sweep to sweep the cutting tool along the path to create the precise geometry.

Many thanks!
