Spur Gear Calculations To convert a circular pitch (CP) to DP To convert the module (Mod) to DP To Get Diametral Pitch Diametral

Pitch

Divide 3.1416 by the circular pitch Divide the 25.4 by the module
Rule Divide 3.1416 by the circular pitch Divide the number of teeth by the pitch diameter Divide number of teeth + 2 by the outside diameter Divide the base pitch by the cosine of the pressure angle then divide by 3.1416 Divide the number of teeth by the diametral pitch Divide the product of the outside diameter + number of teeth by the number of teeth + 2 Subtract 2 divided by the diametral pitch from the outside diameter Multiply addendum by the number of teeth Divide the base diameter by the cosine of the pressure angle Formula

Divide number of teeth + 2 by the diametral pitch Two divided by the diametral pitch plus pitch diameter Number of teeth + 2, divided by the quotient of number of teeth divided by the pitch diameter Multiply the number of teeth + 2 by the addendum Multiply the pitch diameter by the diametral pitch Multiply the outside diameter by the diametral pitch and subtract 2 Divide 1.5708 by the diametral pitch Divide 1 by the diametral pitch Divide 1.157 (or 1.25) by the diametral pitch Divide 2 by the diametral pitch Divide 2.157 (or 2.25) by the diametral pitch Divide .157 (or .250) by the diametral pitch Divide thickness of tooth at the pitchline by 10

OD = (N+2) / Pd

Outside Diameter

OD = (2 / Pd) + D

Outside Diameter

OD = (N+2) / (N / D)

Outside Diameter

OD = (N + 2) x A

Number Of Teeth

N = D x Pd

Add the number of teeth in both gears and divide by 2 then divide by the center distance Add the number of teeth in both gears and divide by 2 then divide by the normal diametral pitch Add the number of teeth in both gears and divide by 2 then divide by the operating diametral pitch Multiply the pitch diameter by the cosine of the pressure angle Divide the base diameter by the pitch diameter Divide Pi by the diametral pitch, then divide by the base pitch Divide the diametral pitch by Pi, then multiply by the cosine of the pressure angle

PdO = ((n1 + n2)/2) / C

Center Distance

C = ((n1 + n2)/2) / Pnd

Operating Center Distance

Base Diameter

Db = PD x (cos PA)

Pressure Angle

cosPA = Db / D

Pressure Angle

cosPA = (3.1416 / Pd) / Pb

Base Pitch

Pb = (Pd / 3.1416) x (cos PA)
