How to Calculate Maximum Length of Arc of Approach?
Maximum Length of Arc of Approach calculator uses Length of arc of contact = (Radius of Pitch Circle of Wheel+Radius of Pitch Circle of Pinion)*tan(Pressure Angle of Gear) to calculate the Length of arc of contact, The maximum length of arc of approach is the ratio of the length of the path of contact and the cosine of the pressure angle when interference is avoided. Length of arc of contact is denoted by L symbol.
