To create gears in SOLIDWORKS:
- Create a new part.
- Launch Toolbox on the Task Pane.
- Browse to the standard and hardware types that you require.
In this example we will be using ANSI Metric > Power Transmission > Gears. - Right click on Spur Gear > Create Part.
- Select the module and properties as per your requirement.
- Click OK.
The new part will be created using the information that you set. The features will be automatically listed under the FeatureManager Design Tree. - Go to File > Save As..
Rename the part and save it into your folder.
If you can’t find the value that you’re looking for in the properties list, you may configure your own custom hardware. Click here to learn more.
