Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to introduce the application of an S-shaped transition curve in designing and generating a spur gear. In engineering field, the spur gear usually designed by using an involute curve where this curve needs to use a tracing point method to obtain a curve while an S-shaped curve can obtain a curve directly. The comparative study between an S-shaped method and direct method in computer aided design (CAD) tool also covered.
