Toothing Error

[John T]

Hi Art,
Probably nobody should be making a gear like this but there is a tooth generation problem.

John:

  Thx :)

The issue is one of balance, I try quite hard to balance speed and output of the non circular toothing engine.
In GM, it could take up to an hour to generate the teeth that G2 now generated in seconds, in part its because
I found new ways to compute all the intersections needed, but its also because I balance stepping factors between
values that are quick and sloppy and fine and accurate. Youve found a point where Im not optimum for. You will find
slightly changing the eccentricity or other factors can fix that error. Im always seeking ways to optimise further though
and Ive taken note of the values to see if I can elliminate that one.

  but your right..probably no-one should make a .8 eccentricity gear.. but it never stops me either. :)
