Laying-out a planetary gear set. How to position the planetary gears at specific points around the central gear?
Asked by
Lance Martin
Just needing help with plotting 6 equidistant points around a circle. I get that I'd use the angle tool, but the only reference to it I can find is that there are two types; the geographic and mathematician. So for my specific question, "Where is the angle tool, and how is it used?"
My specific design dilemma? I am attempting to lay-out a planetary gear set where the planet gears will mate directly with and attach into a motor-mount's bolt-hole pattern.
I am brand new to this and am looking at an uphill fight. I'm telling you, any help at all would be, highly, appreciated!
