Proceedings of the World Congress on Engineering 2008 Vol II WCE 2008, July 2 - 4, 2008, London, U.K. Algorithm to Describe the Ideal Spur Gear Profile O.Reyes, A.Rebolledo, G.Sanchez Abstract—In this paper an algorithm to describe the ideal II. NOMENCLATURE spur gear profile is proposed. More precisely, the goal is to describe the point to point movement to be used within a CNC θ: Actual angle. machine. Three parameters are the required algorithm input r : Radius. data: the modulus, the number of teeth and the pressure angle. r : Base radius. b The algorithm is based upon the equations of the circular head and root thickness. The involute of the base circle is used to ψ : Pressure angle draw the tooth. The algorithm can be translated into any r : External radius. machine language. However, two codes are proposed in order to e test it: A Visual Basic code (which can run as a macro in Excel) r : Pitch (or primitive) radius. p and a CNC Mitsubishi G code. Several tips for machining are Ec : Circular thickness. finally given. γ : Circular thickness angle. Index Terms— Algorithm, spur gear profile, involute, m: Gear modulus
