Thank you for not only providing the design for free, which I am most of the way through printing on a 1mm noz. but also for providing an article that I can read and follow instead of the video. I prefer it.

Very good coverage of a well-known design. Done better than most other channels. I bet this is an interim video before a bigger project is revealed! 😉

Impressive gearbox there these are in everything they work so well

Another top-notch video. Great work.

The only thing the world forgets is that it owes it all to a Hungarian engineer inventor called József Pigeon. He left Hungary for the World's Fair and stayed in America. He became a collaborator of Henry Ford. One of the Ford T. models received this kind of gearless drive. By gradually braking the outer ring with a lever-operated fairing, the car went faster and faster.

This was super helpful in a sea of planetary gearboxes

One of the contributing factors to the low efficiency of the planetary gearbox is the helical gears. Helical gears, due to their nature, cause axial load. Straight cut gears would be more efficient, but less durable because only one tooth is engaged at a time. An interesting compromise would be herringbone/chevron/double helical gears, in which the axial force is the same on both sides of the gear. It still has the advantages of multiple tooth engagement, and quieter operation, but with a neutralized axial load.

verry informative video thanks a lot

That was really well put together. Great explanation of the design and results.

So valuable video, i especially appreciate mentioning those rules that designer must follow in order to have working mech. A worthy video, indeed.

This is the way to do it. Model your parts the size they should be and include the manufacturing tolerance in the slicer.

You could stick 3 of these together and use it as an astrotracker for star photography once you polar align it.

Really cool video, really helps with understanding the planetary gearbox. Is there a video or the files available for the set in the section of What is a Planetary Gear Set?

Not sure what torque value for the stepper you used, but the advertised torque of a stepper is the holding torque not running torque, sorry if I missed you actually measuring the running torque of the motor.

Hello, I was wondering is it possible to add a flow simulation into Visualise? Iv been trying to figure out if this is possible and I figured if anyone would know if this is possible it would be you 🙏🙏

I think the tight running of the gearbox might be due to an inaccuracy in modelling the ring gear. When you do the boolean operation, the addendum of the original gear becomes the ring gear's dedendum, and the original gear's dedendum becomes the ring gear's addendum, and you don't mention in the video correcting for that. You usually have to because standard addendum is 1m, while dedendum is 1.25m. I think I'm also seeing that at 7:04, where the tips of the ring gear teeth stick all the way into the grooves of the planet gears. The grooves of the ring gear look good though so I'm not 100% sure. In my own tutorial I fix this by "press-pulling" the teeth of the original gear to make them longer, and then increasing the ID of the original gear, before performing the boolean operation.

@HowToMechatronics

11 ай бұрын

Thank you Antal, your tutorials are great, I gained some knowledge of from them which I implemented here in this tutorial. In your tutorial you explained the thing with the gear's addendum and dedendum really great. I have just checked my model, and I saw that have only added clearance to the ring gear tip (in the normal gear I have added clearance in the groove, which makes tip of the ring gear to have clearance after using the boolean function). So yeah, I'm missing a clearance at the groves at the final ring gear. I always have hard time deciding what information to include and what not when making a tutorial. If there are too much information it might be overwhelming for the majority of the viewers, but on the other hand it's useful for those who want to learn more details about the subject. This tutorial came out to be more on the visual side, to look good and explain the matter as simple as possible. Cheers!

Which 3dprinted small gear will break first when it's under big stress?

Planetary gear is the king-of-gears

How can the ring gear teeth get correct geometry if they are constructed by subtraction from a regular gear? Does the tool not support a ring gear with correct tooth geometry?

@nilsdock

came here to say this, the subtraction method will generate a similar profile but not an optimal one, i suspect a lot of performance issues relate to this design.

After all this gearboxes, I really wish to see them implemented on a 3D printed robot arm! I hope you can make that wish into reality!

I like your cut-out demo gearmotor. I've only seen metal gear planetary gearboxes I've take apart. All had Spur gears. I guess they can't sinter metal helical gears.

I am fairly certain you can sinter helical or other gears, but you probably can’t laser cut anything but spur. Having said that, each type of gear has different mechanical properties, they are not the same.

I believe the backlash compensation for the ring gear goes in the wrong direction for the boolean operation. If you are able (or didn't already), try using a negative value in that part.

Yes, that's right. Nice catch!

I am from a robotics team currently in FIRST Tech Challenge community and for this season we want to make a planetary gear box to use for two different mechanisms. The torque part of the planetary gearbox for hangning our robot on a truss and the speed part of the system for our intake because we need speed for collecting the game elements. I want to know if it is possible to make this planetary gearbox with one DC motor and a servo or something like this? Can you please help us?

Nice project! Where are you from?

In automotive applications the ring gear is most often the output.

Very nice! I'm wondering, if you intended on printing, why not use a double helical design (V-shape) to prevent side forces during load? Currently the side forces will increase the friction between bushing and the washer and reduce efficiency. P.s. your video gives a bit contradicting information: first you say "when 3D printing the parts come out a little bit bigger" (~10:00), later (13:05) you say you change settings because else "the prints are smaller than the model". Seems like more calibration is required there.

@HowToMechatronics

11 ай бұрын

Thank you! Well, I didn't want to use double helical design because not they are not that often used in real applications. Yeah, it would be easy to print them with a 3D printer, but they are very hard to be manufactured in reality. Also assembling them can be hard. As for the prints being bigger and smaller, that's a nice catch, it sounds contradicting. The thing is that the prints outer walls are always bigger, but in case of a hole, having a bigger outer wall would results having a smaller hole. Yeah, I could have said that I little better and clearer. Cheers!

I,m an inventor That's great . Thanks

What kind of printer you are using ?

Hey, I know it's quite a niche thing to ask but have you by any chance ever made a video on RV reducers? I can't for the life of me wrap my head around how they work and they seem to be everywhere in industrial robotics. :/

Hallo. Congratulations for a great work and also an excelant job from video point of view as well. I'd like to coment torque efficiency. I think there is no need for disappointment. Torque theoretically should be higher but, we shuld consider that revolutions transition goes from sun to planetary to ring in one planetary box and there are two boxes in a row. So there are 4 stages if I'm correct. At 50% overall efficency that would mean 84% efficiency at one stage which is not bad at all from the point of view that gears are printed, that there is not much of a lubrication and the bearings are simple. In the end again. An excelant job. I'm looking forward of your new projects.

Wouldn't straight cut gears be more efficient than the helical design you used? If I understand correctly, the straight cut gears are more noisy, but more efficiently transmit torque. It is for this reason that straight cut gear sets are sometimes used in drag racing applications where noise isn't a heavily weighted consideration, but torque is.

It would be interesting to use it for, say 10,000, cycles with a set load and compare its performance after 🙂

sorry, isn't better to use servomotor instead of a stepper motor?
