Abstract

Engineering education requires modern training courses and integrated IT solutions. This paper describes the development of 3D demonstration utility which imitate involute gear wheel manufacturing process. Development of such utilities now is significantly simplified by special software called “3D engines”. Students and TMM teachers now have perspectives to easily develop their own utilities and models within the training according to famous “Russian method” of engineering education. The example and experience of development of such solution is given in this paper.
