FBX Gear Generator StarForge 3D Modeling Software

Meshing Spur Gears for Clockwork Rigs

Animators rigging a clockwork or a vehicle drivetrain in Maya, 3ds Max, Unity or Unreal Engine often want parts in Autodesk FBX, the interchange format all four share. The FBX Gear Generator supplies involute spur gears that really mesh: module, tooth count and bore are entered, a mate is added, and the pair rotates on screen at the exact centre distance while outlines are checked never to cross, all at a 20 degree pressure angle with 0.15 mm backlash. When the gear should exist physically, StarForge 3D Modeling Software exports a 3D Print STL File for 3D printing.
