| FCSprocket: a Sprocket Generator for FreeCAD | |
| ================================================ | |
| This is a simple sprocket generation tool. Sprockets are used in combination | |
| with roller chain to transmit power. The tooth profiles are drawn according | |
| to ANSI standards from the methods outlined in: | |
| Standard handbook of chains : chains for power transmission and material | |
| handling. Boca Raton: Taylor & Francis, 2006. Print. | |
| AND | |
| Oberg, Erik, et al. Machinery's handbook : a reference book for the | |
| mechanical engineer, designer, manufacturing engineer, draftsman, | |
| toolmaker, and machinist. New York: Industrial Press, 2016. Print. | |
| This code is based on the work of David Douard and his implementation of the | |
| gear generator (fcgear) found in FreeCAD. | |
