Planetary gear trains
Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2018 12:45 pm
Hello there, I'm new to gearotic and its forum. I searched on the forum and I believe the most recent topic on the matter is from 2015.
Was there any update to gearotic to be able to make planetary gear trains? I mean to have gears out on moving arms and stuff.
I'm a mechanical engineer professor and many students have a really tough time in seeing planetary gears moving. They can't understand an example of a sun gear rotating clockwise and a planet gear translating counter-clockwise. I believe it's the only thing I haven't found to give nice examples on the subject.
