GearTrax™ provides the designer with an easy to use tool
for creating solid models of drive components. Create
spur, helical, straight bevel and involute splines with true involute
tooth profiles.
GearTrax™ is intuitively easy to use for
the designer with limited gear experience yet powerful enough for the
gear expert. The animation
window shows the spur/helical gear mesh which updates as the data is
changed. It is extremely useful in understanding how changes to the
gear parameters reflects on the gear mesh.
GearTrax™ is more than a library
program. Each part model is created with it's specific
requirements just as a designer would, but rather than taking hours or
days, the part is created in seconds. GearTrax creates solid
models of spur and helical gears, bevel gears, worm gears, involute
splines, timing belt pulleys, chain sprockets and V-belt pulleys.
GearTrax™ also integrates with Excel to create data sheets.

Some important information about
GearTrax
 | Involute
splines. What
are involute splines?
Involute splines are commonly used to attach a gear to a shaft.
Normally, involute splines are made in pairs, an external spline and an
internal spline.
|
 | Internal gears.
Creating internal gear sets has been improved with GearTrax.
It is easy to create a set of gears, one internal and one
pinion gear as a matched set.
|
 | A spur gear tooth and involute
spline tooth geometry can now be added to any sketch in SolidWorks.
This makes it very easy to add gear teeth to any part or multiple
teeth geometry to a single part.
|
 | Spur and helical gear
teeth are now cut-extruded rather than the tooth feature
boss-extruded on a base feature. A
number of customers asked for this so they could suppress the tooth
pattern and still have the gear “blank” to check for
interference.
Also, some thought it would nice if the gear model more resembled the
manufacturing process.
|
 | Adding mates to GearTrax products
is now much simpler.
All products are created with the center of the gear, pulley etc.,
being on a plane.
In other words, the length of the belt or chain center will now be
centered on a plane.
This is a big improvement for mating parts in an assembly.

"GearTrax
is a great addition to my tools. I have saved more time than I care to think of
had I not had this available. I'm designing a remote control car right now, and
I don’t even think about the gear design portion of this. It’s about as
intuitive as it could be, and with the animation, fantastic."
