CutGear Studio resource
CNC Gear Generator for DXF Files
Create DXF gear files for CNC router, Shapeoko, woodworking, routing, and cut-ready fabrication workflows without installing CAD gear plugins.
What you can make
- CNC-routed spur gears for woodworking and fabrication projects.
- Linear motion rack and pinion mechanisms.
- Internal gears and sprockets for jigs, models, and shop prototypes.
Export formats
- DXF output for CNC router and CAD/CAM workflows.
- SVG output for layout, review, and vector editing before routing.
- STL output is available for supported 3D-ready gear settings.
How it works
- 1Pick the generator that matches your part: spur, rack and pinion, internal gear, or chain sprocket.
- 2Set teeth, module, bore size, material thickness, and layout options.
- 3Export a DXF file, import it into CAM, and prepare your CNC router toolpaths.
FAQ
Is this for CNC routers?
Yes. The DXF workflow is useful for CNC router projects, Shapeoko-style setups, woodworking, routing, and fabrication planning.
Are the files ready to cut?
The app creates clean vector geometry, but you should still choose tooling, feeds, workholding, tabs, and CAM settings in your CNC software.
Can I make rack and pinion parts?
Yes. The rack and pinion generator creates matching rack and pinion layouts with adjustable module, teeth, and rack length.
