Tooth Shift for Non circular gears

Post by ArtF »

Hi All:

This is a response to a user who desires a way to shift the tooth of an elliptical gear pair so the
tooth is half shifted so instead of a tooth, a space appears at start of tooth generation on either gear.

This file https://gearotic.com/GearoticToothShift.zip

has a checkbox labeled SHIFT under the pressure angle setting. It will shift the created toothing profiles by 1/2 tooth.
I wont release this in the general release for a bit as Gearotic is quite old, most bugs are gone and I dont want to introduce
any. Let me know if it helps, To use, unzip the file into your Gearotic folder, it will replace the Gearotic's executable.

Regards
Art

Many thanks

Instead of replacing the original Gearotic.exe file, I added a second executable named Gearotic(tooth_shift).exe to the same folder
