This is a Metric Translation gear for cutting metric threads on an imperial leadscrew lathe this was designed for a South Bend lathe model 9C. photo is of 80/63 translation gear as I don't think this 127/100 would fit my present set up need to make another banjo to make it fit. The teeth have 14.5 degree pressure angle The gear has a DP of 18 The module is 1.411 True involute form The 127 tooth has an designed inside dia of 165mm but ends up about 164mm The 100 tooth has a designed inside dia of 127mm but ends up about 126mm The 100 tooth ring has 1mm step so it give a gap between the gears so it is 3/8" wide + 1mm The 127 tooth ring is 3/8" wide which is the width of the standard South Bend gears It's mainly a space problem that dictates which of the translation gears you use, there may be others but these are the common ones that I know of. The 127/100 metric translation gear which gives no errors in the generated pitches. The 80/63 gives an error of 0.0125% The another gear set 47/37 gives an error of -0.0212% Print Settings Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: I used a 0.3 Infill: 100 % Notes: The centre I made is of hardwood as that is what I had laying around, but form board or marine ply would probably be a better option. I turned the timber so that the ABS ring just slipped over then cover with super glue and made sure it ran true before the glue set Category: Machine Tools
