Programming a Total Runout on a Gear Surface

[[Jo...]]

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me how to program a total runout on a gear surface? What kind of feature should I use to get the best result and how should I evaluate it? Please see image from actual drawing.

Thanks in advance!

would be easier with Gear Pro, can also be done in Calypso. Do you have Gear Pro ?

method for Calypso to align gear :

Hi Chris,

I don't believe I have Gear Pro. Is that part of the standard package, or is it a separate license? If it's a separate license, then I definitely don't have it.

It's not just a seperate license, it's a seperate program.

can be done without it just follow .ppt in link, make sure where you do your gear gap 'find' alignment, you also check tip dia at that height, otherwise on a helical gear, obviously you would end up falling off. give it a try, I've done it dozens of times in Calypso only works fine.
