For enjoyment, a complex assembly featuring internal and external gears with 45 degree teeth was modeled using Solidworks 2016. Simlab Composer 7 Mechanical Edition was employed for rendering the design. Frames were edited with Virtualdub and saved as AVI/X264 and BMP formats. MyMP4BoxGui was utilized to remux video files, while PhotoScape was used to create Gifs. IrfanView served to edit renders. The 3D-PDF, ZIM, and SIMLAB files all feature animation. The ZIM file is viewable on iOS and Android devices with the free Simlab Viewer app when using the Simlab Viewer app. The model can be accessed in various formats including Solidworks 2016, Simlab Composer 7, DAE, STEP, IGES, Parasolid, OBJ, 3D-PDF, SketchUp, and 3DS.
