11.6.2 Gear teeth in case of an existing basic solid

11.6.2.1 Procedure for generating toothing

1. In Solid Edge, draw a surface in the area where the gear teeth are to be cut out.
2. Select the plane
3. In KISSsoft, select which gear (e.g. Gear 1) you want to generate on the cylinder.

Prerequisites:

▪ The cylinder diameter must already be the correct external diameter for the toothing before
generation starts.
▪ For internal toothing, a hollow cylinder must already be modeled before the gear teeth can be
cut out.
