2-Speed Gearbox

Project Overview

The gearbox housing was machined from a 6061 aluminium billet on a 3-axis CNC mill, with G-code generated entirely in Fusion 360 CAM. Spur gears were cut on a gear hobbing machine and hardened. The project required close attention to tolerancing at every bearing seat and gear mesh to ensure smooth, low-noise operation.

Key Highlights

  • ±0.01 mm tolerances achieved on all critical bearing fits
  • Full CAM program written in Fusion 360 — 14 setups
  • CMM inspection report produced for all critical dimensions
  • Tested under sustained 200 Nm input torque with no failure
  • Complete GD&T drawing set with stack-up analysis
