CutGear Studio Help

Quick guide for the Gear Generator App, previews, and SVG, DXF, or STL exports.

01

Choose a Gear Type

Spur, Rack and Pinion, Internal, Planetary, or ChainWheel.

02

Adjust Settings

Teeth, module/tooth size, bore diameter, thickness, clearance, and gear-specific controls.

03

Preview in 2D / 3D

Use 2D for cut layout and labels; use 3D for thickness and extrusion checks.

04

Preview Motion

Use Play to inspect motion. Labels hide while animation runs.

05

Export Files

SVG for laser/vector work, DXF for CAD/CAM, and STL for 3D-ready models.

06

Physical Geometry

Bore holes, mount holes, pin holes, and cutouts are real cut geometry.

07

Labels & Guides

Text labels and dimension guides are preview/export aids.

08

Verify Before Making

Confirm material thickness, tolerances, kerf, print settings, and safety.

Always verify dimensions, tolerances, material thickness, kerf, print settings, and test fit before cutting, machining, 3D printing, or assembling generated parts.
