Hi all
I have a question regarding proper spur gear meshing.
The two spur gear shown in the picture attached are meshed with the gear connection in mechanism by defining their pitch circle dia.
but when i move the mechanism with drag handle or it is moved by any other way they dont look like what gears should look like.
When they mesh they move into each other just like one is made of steel and the other is made of jelly.
Before meshing i create a came connection between mating gears so that their tooth faces are in contact.after that i delete it and then create a gear pair.
I also use the drag tool to align them.
The output velocity of the gear train is correct but i am worried about the impact forces which i need for its FEA Analysis.
I have read the help about creating dynamic gear pair.
Kindly help me if there is solution.
