Select the Configuration — Parallel or intersecting or Neither parallel nor intersecting. The Configuration is always set to Parallel or intersecting for spur and bevel gears. For helical gears, you can select the Configuration as Parallel or intersecting (for parallel axis helical gears) or Neither parallel nor intersecting (for crossed axis helical gears).

|
For Parallel or intersecting, select the Contact model — Point contact or Line contact. For Neither parallel nor intersecting the Contact model is always set to Point contact.
|
•
|
For Parallel or intersecting, enter Contact point offset from pinion center zpn. For Neither parallel nor intersecting it is automatically computed.

|
In 2D, there are no settings for selecting the Contact Model. The Configuration is always Parallel and the Contact model is always set to the Point contact.

Select Include gear elasticity to enter the gear mesh stiffness, mesh damping, and the contact ratio. These properties can be entered in the Gear Elasticity subnode, which is added automatically. By default, this option is not selected.
|
•
|
Select Include transmission error to enter the static transmission error for individual gears or for the gear pair. These can be entered in the Transmission Error subnode, which is added automatically. By default, this option is not selected.
