Addendum of Pinion Calculator

Calculate Addendum of Pinion







Formula

The formula to calculate the Addendum of Pinion is:

\[ A_p = \frac{Z_p}{2} \left( \sqrt{1 + \frac{T}{Z_p} \left( \frac{T}{Z_p} + 2 \right) \left( \sin(\Phi_{\text{gear}}) \right)^2} - 1 \right) \]

Where:

Definition

Addendum of pinion is the height by which a tooth of a gear projects beyond (outside for external, or inside for internal) the standard pitch circle or pitch line.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ A_p = \frac{8}{2} \left( \sqrt{1 + \frac{12}{8} \left( \frac{12}{8} + 2 \right) \left( \sin(0.55850536063808) \right)^2} - 1 \right) \]

Evaluating:

\[ A_p = 2.29193228148959 \text{ m} \]

The Addendum of Pinion is 2.29193228148959 m.
