How to Use the Gear Module Calculator

  1. Enter the pitch diameter of the gear in millimeters (mm).
  2. Enter the number of teeth on the gear.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the module.
  4. The module of the gear will be displayed in the result field.

Understanding the Module of a Gear

The module (m) of a gear is a fundamental parameter that relates the pitch diameter (D) to the number of teeth (z) on the gear. It is defined as:

m = D / z

Where:

  • m = Module of the gear (mm)
  • D = Pitch Diameter of the gear (mm)
  • z = Number of Teeth on the gear

The module determines the size of the gear teeth and is crucial for ensuring proper gear meshing and transmission of power.
