Create Helical Gears Using Equations in SolidWorks
Unlock the full potential of parametric modeling in SolidWorks!
In this tutorial, we’ll walk through creating a helical gear using equations, making your design fully parametric and easily adjustable. With the Equation Method, you can change a single value—like module or number of teeth—and instantly update the entire gear model without manual edits.
Whether you’re a beginner learning SolidWorks equations or an advanced user wanting to automate your workflow, this step-by-step guide covers it all:
- Setting up Global Variables
- Designing a helical gear profile
- Making your gear fully parametric and reusable
Why watch this?
- Save time on repetitive modeling
- Eliminate manual recalculations
- Master one of the most powerful tools in SolidWorks
If you want to design smarter, not harder, this tutorial is for you!
