Tutorial: How to Model a Planetary Gear Mechanism in Blender

In this tutorial, you will learn how to model a planetary gear drive with Blender 3D, and test it with Blender's Rigid Body Physics engine. The gears feature involute tooth profiles and herringbone shapes. We recommend watching our Involute Gear tutorial at • Tutorial: How to Model... first.
The end result of this tutorial, a .blend file containing the working simulation of a planetary mechanism, can be downloaded from www.otvinta.com/tutorial04.html.

    12:45 The loop cut Z rotation angle (for tability purpose) is said to be inversely proportionnal to the number of teeths, which i translate as Zrot=1/(Number of teeths)...1/60=0.0116 for the ring (You said 0.6°) 1/24=0.04166 for the planet (You said 1.5°) and -1/12 for the sun gear (you said -3°). I cant figure out how you end up with this rotation angles. Please explain

    The rigid body version didn't work for me. Everyting I tried the gears exploded away or they jittered but ditn't spinning around in my version created from this video instructions. The downloaded version works and I don't find out why. So I decided to use drivers and this works perfectly. I want to describe or illustrate mechanical behaviour not to simulate and test a physical model.

    is it true that the formula for gear ratio = 1+R/S can be used in any circumstance, no matter which one gear out of three is stationary.

    can you give a more concrete way of determining teeth counts with different input and output gears because other wise the calculator is flawed.

WTF is this?!!! ;[ Please masters of Blender help me. By the way how did u marked accurate 1/3 of the bottom vertecies in 14:40?

    Unfortunately, this type of software is highly susceptible to mode errors where the user, following the tutorial, enters the command, but receives errors because the user is in the wrong mode for that command. This is made worse by some commands being written (mouse icon with letter) while others are not (e.g. at 5:15 the mouse is shown with an R for rotate, but the next two commands are skipped: Z and Ctrl+V). In other places, assumption are made about the user's knowledge of the interface. In my case, I can't select the endpoints to connect them. I am certainly in the wrong mode to select points, but the select menu includes scores of options, none of which allow for point selection. With only part of the screen in view, determining if the mode is different and how to get in the correct mode is very difficult.

    A few more basic tutorials will make this one easier. Here is what you need to know: The only modes used here are OBJECT mode and EDIT mode (press Tab to toggle). Move the world with middle-wheel-click and maybe shift or control. Select by right-click, add/subtract selection is shift-right-click. Select points by right clicking in EDIT mode. Press A to toggle: select all/select None. There are three transformations: Scale (S) Rotate (R) and Translate/grab (G) with this syntax: s|r|g x|y|z number |right-click. For example, rotate around Z axis by 15 degrees, just type: R Z 15 . Right-click aborts the transform. Right-click positions the 3d cursor, Shift-C resets it. (just learned that one.) I think that is all the things you need to know to start this tutorial.

    Planets move in elliptical orbit not in circular orbit which cause variation in speed as it approaches sun and moves away from Sun, so your model could not replicate the exact motion of planets

    For all the dudes, that arent able to replicate the model - you most likely dont center the 3d cursor at center of the planetary gear (at 12:27), while doing a loop cut and rotating it on Z with 1.5 degrees. Thank me later. :)))
