Application Description

Crank Arm Design and Fabrication Tool

Are you looking to create custom crank arms with precision? Our innovative tool allows you to design crank arms of specified dimensions using either a leather cutter or a 3D printer. Here's how it works:

Key Features

• Design and Calculate: Input your desired dimensions, and our tool calculates and generates an SVG (2D) or STL (3D) file of the crank arm. This ensures that your design is accurate and ready for production.
• Balance Weight Calculation: Automatically calculates the size of the balance weight based on the outside diameter of the balance weight, the mass on the crank pin side, and the density of the crank arm material.
• Material and Mass Calculation: From the given parameters, the tool calculates the size of the weight needed to achieve perfect balance.

Parameters

• Crankshaft Diameter (mm)
• Crank Pin Diameter (mm)
• Crank Arm Length (mm)
• Crank Arm Width (mm)
• Balance Weight Radius (mm)
• Thickness (mm)

Integration and Sharing

The generated data can be seamlessly displayed and shared with other applications. It's compatible with 3D printers and PCs, making it easy to transfer your designs for fabrication. For size comparison, the underlaying square in the design represents a credit card.

What's New in Version 0.5

Last updated on Oct 9, 2022

• Version 0.5: Added a minimum density setting for balance weight calculations.
• Version 0.4: Introduced parameter restrictions to enhance design accuracy.
• Version 0.3: Added support for D-cut designs and automatic calculation of balance weight size.
• Version 0.2: Included support for balance weights and circular designs.
• Version 0.1: Initial release.

With our tool, you can easily design and fabricate crank arms tailored to your specific needs, ensuring optimal performance and balance.
