Elliptical gearing

Post by petwood »

Hi everybody

I am an orrerymaker based in ther UK, and this is my first post here (or on any forum).
One of my dreams is to build a cometarium, for which I need elliptical gears.
I have a friend who has told me "if you can get me a DFX file I can machine it on my CNC machines (he runs a business making moulds for injection moulding machines).

In the intro on the Gearotic site it mentions files for elliptical gears, but I am unable to find out where they are.
If anyone can point the way I would be really grateful.

All the best
Peter

Hi Peter:

You can generate the Elliptical on the noncircular gear section. Create them to the project screen, and you can then put them out as dxf's..
