Abstract :
Take straight-tooth bevel gear as the research object, parametric design is made to the straight-tooth bevel gear by using of three-dimensional software Pro/Engineer through analyzing the relationship between every parameter of the straight-tooth bevel gear. The straight-tooth bevel gear after parameterization can be driven and quickly get different parameters bevel gear parts through changing all the appropriate parameters, which reflects the advantages of fast parametric design. As well as the rapid prototyping for straight-tooth bevel gear is manufactured, which rapid prototyping could provide macro-level model for companies in product pre-appraisal and reduce the cost & cycle in designing and manufacturing new product.
