    Gears module
AI Thread Summary
When calculating the module for spur gears, it's important to refer to the DIN 780 standard table for guidance. The discussion emphasizes rounding up calculated module values, such as 3.91 to 4, and rounding down when appropriate, like 3.45 to 3. This approach ensures that the chosen module aligns with standard sizes. Participants confirm that rounding is a common practice in gear design. Properly selecting the module is crucial for gear compatibility and performance.

hello,

i am doing gear calculations
my problem: i get several point numbers for the module of the spur gear
din 780 suggest a standard table with modules
so i just have to wrap up my calculated modules, for example: 3.91 => 4 ?

thank you vm !
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
anyway can help me ?
 
someone, please ?
 
Yes - round up
 
oke thank you !
always round up or 3.45 => 3 ?
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
