Powerful Features for Smarter Gear Design

Everything you need to design, calculate and automate gear design, in one cloud-based platform.

No installation Access anywhere Secure & reliable

01

Accurate Gear Profile Generation

From parameters to precise profile.

Define spur and helical gear pairs by centre distance, normal module, pressure angle, helix angle, number of teeth and face width. Fine-tune the profile shift with a live slider and inspect the meshing pair in 2D or 3D.

  • Spur & helical gear geometry
  • Profile shift with live adjustment
  • Reference profiles & tooth tolerances
  • 2D CAD inspection & 3D view

02

Faster Design Process

Less switching, more designing.

Geometry and strength live side by side in one screen. Enter the load case (power, speed, service life, lubricant, material and load factors), click Calculate and the results summary updates instantly. Designs are saved automatically and open in tabs, so you can compare alternatives.

  • Geometry & strength in one view
  • ISO 6336:2019 calculation method
  • Autosaved designs in tabs
  • One-click sheet & DXF export

03

Manufacturing-Ready Data Tables

Reliable data for real-world production.

Turn calculated gear designs into structured engineering data. Every result, from tip and root diameters to backlash and safety factors, is laid out per gear and exports to a spreadsheet without retyping values.

  • Tip & root diameters, contact ratio
  • Normal backlash range
  • Root & flank safety factors
  • One-click Excel export

04

2D / 3D Gear Design Export

Seamless transition to your CAD workflow.

Generate accurate gear geometry directly from your calculated design. Export 2D drawings, 3D models and standard file formats to integrate with your downstream engineering and manufacturing processes.

  • 2D drawings (PDF / DXF)
  • 3D models (STEP / IGES / STL)
  • CAD-ready geometry
  • Custom export settings
3D CAD export is included in Pro and Enterprise

Ready for CAD and downstream workflows
05

Gear Geometry Configuration & Sizing

Design with requirements, not just geometry.

Start from your constraints instead of a fixed geometry. Enter the centre distance, required ratio and ranges for module, helix angle, teeth and profile shift. GEARKITE generates every valid configuration, and one click applies the one you choose to your design.

  • Range-based configuration search
  • Ratio tolerance & centre distance
  • Profile shift distribution
  • Export configurations to a sheet

Every valid configuration, one click to apply
06

Batch Design Automation

More designs. Less effort.

When one design becomes dozens of design cases, Batch Mode lets you upload them as an Excel sheet, run them all automatically and review the results side by side. Save hours of repetitive work and focus on making the right design decisions.

  • Upload design cases from Excel
  • Geometry & strength in one run
  • Live run status
  • Download results as a sheet
