Mastercam creates a sketch from the resulting geometry.Īlso available in the Mastercam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS release is: The Roll-Unroll function is used to wrap geometry about an axis, or to unwrap rolled entities to make them lie flat. The Mastercam 2017 tab now includes a CAD Functions menu which contains the Create Boundary and Create Letters functions. When a modification to the SOLIDWORKS geometry affects multiple planes, Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS displays a message asking you to confirm your changes. To simplify your work, Tplanes are now associated to the SOLIDWORKS geometry that was used to create them. When hovering over an element that is not an endpoint, a tooltip will display information that is specific to the entity. Green and red arrows display at the start and end points of the entire path. To make your job easier, Analyze Toolpath is used to display toolpath information such as coordinates, direction, operation number, and more when you hover over any part of the tool motion. In addition to all the improvements to Mastercam Mill and Lathe, Mastercam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS features the Analyze Toolpath, improved Tplanes, and so much more. Users can program parts directly in SOLIDWORKS using Mastercam’s industry-leading toolpaths and machining strategies. Mastercam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS is a CAM application that is fully integrated into SOLIDWORKS. Mastercam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS Brings Speed, Efficiency, and Automation It is easier on your system resources and allows you to look at the model and make sure all your gears are tangent.Master cam 2017 for SOLIDWORKS – Highlights Keep in mind that for the purpose of general designing, it is often better just to extrude/revolve a disk of the pitch diameter in place of the gear. You can change the various properties (pitch diameter, # of teeth, bore size, etc) from there. You just open it up in solidworks and go to the “configurations” tab in the left column.
( Here’s the hex one on 3dContent Central if you need a version for Solidworks 2007 or earlier) One has a hex broach and the other a keyway broach. Attached are two that I put together a while ago. If you do not have the toolbox, you could use Design Table Parts. Drag it into your model and a configuration table will appear in the left column where you can configure the pitch, # of teeth, etc) Navigate to Gears (Toolbox>Ansi Inch>Power Transmission>Gears) and select the type you want. Then, click on the tab in the right column that looks like a bar graph. Make sure you have the toolbox enabled (Tools>Add-Ins). If your version of solidworks includes the solidworks toolbox, you can do it directly in there.
I’m not very familiar with mastercam, but here’s some ways to make gears in solidworks:
