    What is/how do i measure the module of these bevel gears?

    Hi all, I've got 2 bevel gears that I'm recreating in CAD, I've got the shapes down it's just a little bit of fine tuning with the dimensions, for which I need the module/diametral pitch of the gears. The pinion has 9 teeth and a tip diameter of roughly 39.3mm, and the gear has 14 teeth and a...

    Automotive Automotive differential problem

    Again excellent reply jack thanks! My last question is concerning a specific bit of software - MITcalc. I'm currently trying to use this software to tell me whether a competitors gear set can handle the power of a given engine. I keep on getting very low values for safety factor, i.e 0.05...

    Automotive Automotive differential problem

    Thanks for the excellent reply jack, this is exactly what I was after! I did think that the bevel gear ratio is irrelevant but it seems strange to me that such an important piece of kit has an arbitrary form. Can anybody direct me to a textbook/website that explains how to find the smallest...

    Automotive Automotive differential problem

    Hi there, I'm currently doing some research into differentials and have been unable to find any indepth information on them. Every article I read covers the basics that one axle turns one direction relative to the diff casing and the other in the opposite direction so that the average of the 2...
