# make_helical_gear_rsolid
|
|
|
|
## API Definition
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
def make_helical_gear_rsolid(n_teeth: int, module: float, pressure_angle: float = 20.0, helix_angle: float = 30.0, gear_height: float = 8.0, *, addendum_factor: float = 1.0, clearance_factor: float = 0.25, backlash: float = 0.0) -> Solid
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
*Source: std/gear.py*
|
|
|
|
## Import Surface
|
|
|
|
- standard library: `import simplecadapi as scad` then `scad.std.gear.make_helical_gear_rsolid(...)`; direct submodule import: `from simplecadapi.std.gear import make_helical_gear_rsolid`
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
Create an involute helical gear.
|
|
|
|
Non-zero helix angles use a continuous twisted sweep along the gear axis. An
|
|
auxiliary-spine rotation law preserves the profile while generating one
|
|
continuous side face per profile edge instead of one face per loft interval.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|

### addendum_factor
|
|
|
|
- **Type**: `float, default 1.0`
