Create Bevel Gear in Autodesk Inventor

Create Bevel Gear and make animation with Autodesk Inventor

  1. Step 1: Create assembly object

    Create assembly object


    Save the file

  2. Step 2: Using Bevel Gear Generator to create gear

    Open Bevel Gear Generator (Design -> Power Transmission -> the arrow at Gear icon -> Bevel Gear)


    Click double arrow to open all box

    Choose "Gear Ratio" (or "Number of Teeth")

    Choose "Module" of gear (or "Diametral Pitch")

    Input factor number (Gear Ratio, Module, Face Width,...)


    Click Calculate (if need) and click OK

    * If you need change more information as force, torque, material,... you can change to Calculation tab.

  3. Step 3: Create animation

    Contrain axis of each gear with fixed axis (Z with Z axis of active gear-bevel gear1, Y with Z axis of inactive gear-bevel gear2)

    Enable Flexible option for Bevel Gear

    Make angle contrain between active gear and a fixed plan (that was created at previous step)


    Can follow below video to contrain it:

    Open Diver (Angle of above contrain), input factor and run animation
