## What is OrbitCAD?

OrbitCAD turns plain-English descriptions into real, engineering-grade mechanical parts — no CAD training required.

Just describe what you need: "spur gear, module 2, 24 teeth" or "arm joint, 40mm bore" — and OrbitCAD generates accurate, parametric 3D geometry in seconds. Rotate, inspect, and export it as STEP or STL for 3D printing or professional CAD workflows.

WHAT YOU CAN DESIGN
- Gears — spur, helical, bevel, worm
- Planetary gearboxes
- Shafts, couplings, and drive components
- Robotics parts — arm joints, mounts, and more
- Drone propellers and custom blade geometry
- And an expanding library of mechanical components

BUILT FOR REAL ENGINEERING
Every part is generated with accurate dimensions, correct tooth profiles, and proper mechanical relationships — not approximations. Inspect wall thickness, diameters, and tolerances directly in the app before you export.

EXPORT READY
Download STEP files for professional CAD software, or STL for 3D printing — straight from your phone.

Whether you're prototyping a robotics project, need a quick replacement part, or just want to explore mechanical design without opening a full CAD suite, OrbitCAD gets you from idea to exportable geometry in one conversation.
