MTU MSE4777 Educational Aid Assignment
This educational aid was created to show how the number of teeth will change the output of the gear. The kit has two variations of the gears, with and without a handle. The handle version will be used for turning the gears on a whiteboard. The gears can be printed without any support. Each gear will require a 10mm x 3mm round neodymium magnet. This design was created by Zach Arnold and Drew Vincent.
This aid demonstrates which aspects of the gears are important when gears are placed in series. The aid conveniently attaches to any magnetic surface for any configuration and each gear has a marking to visualize the turning speed of the gear. The gears all have a pitch of 2.5mm and have the number of teeth ranging from 14 to 40 in increments of 2.
The printing time for an entire kit is roughly 12 hours. The prints have a material cost of roughly $6 USD.
