Circular Pitch Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Circular Pitch = pi*Module
P_c = pi*m
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Circular Pitch - (Measured in Meter) - A circular pitch is the distance along the pitch circle or pitch line between corresponding profiles of adjacent teeth.
Module - (Measured in Meter) - The Module is the unit of size that indicates how big or small is a gear.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Module: 5.5 Millimeter --> 0.0055 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_c = pi*m --> pi*0.0055

Evaluating ... ...

P_c = 0.0172787595947439

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0172787595947439 Meter -->17.2787595947439 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

17.2787595947439 ≈ 17.27876 Millimeter <-- Circular Pitch

What is Arc of contact?

The portion of a circular surface that is in contact with another surface (as that between a belt and a pulley) specifically or the arc on a toothed gear between the point where the teeth first make contact with another gear wheel and the point where that contact ends.

How to Calculate Circular Pitch?

Circular Pitch calculator uses Circular Pitch = pi*Module to calculate the Circular Pitch, A circular pitch is a distance along the pitch circle or pitch line between corresponding profiles of adjacent teeth. Circular Pitch is denoted by P_c symbol.

How to calculate Circular Pitch using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Circular Pitch, enter Module (m) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Circular Pitch calculation can be explained with given input values -> 17278.76 = pi*0.0055.

FAQ

What is Circular Pitch?

A circular pitch is a distance along the pitch circle or pitch line between corresponding profiles of adjacent teeth and is represented as P_c = pi*m or Circular Pitch = pi*Module. The Module is the unit of size that indicates how big or small is a gear.

How to calculate Circular Pitch?

A circular pitch is a distance along the pitch circle or pitch line between corresponding profiles of adjacent teeth is calculated using Circular Pitch = pi*Module. To calculate Circular Pitch, you need Module (m). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Module and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Circular Pitch?

In this formula, Circular Pitch uses Module. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Circular Pitch = Normal Pitch/cos(Helix Angle)
Circular Pitch = (pi*Pitch Circle Diameter)/Number of Teeth on Wheel
