Discover the innovative tool designed to craft crank arms of specified dimensions using either a leather cutter or a 3D printer. This application not only calculates the dimensions based on your input but also generates detailed SVG (2D) or STL (3D) files for your crank arm designs. These files can be easily displayed and shared with other applications, ensuring seamless integration into your workflow.

One of the standout features of this tool is its ability to automatically calculate the size of the balance weight. By considering the outside diameter of the balance weight, the mass on the crank pin side, and the density of the crank arm, it precisely calculates the size of the weight needed to achieve perfect balance.

The parameters you can customize include the crankshaft diameter, crank pin diameter, crank arm length, crank arm width, balance weight radius, and thickness. These parameters are not only adjustable but also viewable within the application, allowing for easy modifications and real-time updates. The generated data can be shared with 3D printers and connected PCs, facilitating a smooth transition from design to production. For size comparison, the application includes an underlaying square that represents the size of a credit card.
