Hello
Does anyone have or know where to get the geometry of tooth profile to make a cutter to make a pulley to fit a Gates Polychain Carbon synchronous belt that is 14 mm pitch .
HTD profile won't work for me.
I checked Toronto Gear in Ontario and to have an 80 tooth pulley make it is about $2000 can.
Not saying its over priced but too much for a hobby project .
I have a lathe and small mill so making a cutter from O1 is the plan.
I have searched and there was a thread somewhere about a Gates engineer giving someone a drawing for a tooth profile ,,, those guys aren't suppose to do that its proprietary info,, I guess he didn't know .
Thanks ED
