Au cours du processus de conception des engrenages, le profil du pied de l'engrenage est un paramètre important. Un rayon de pied d'engrenage plus important se traduit généralement par des contraintes de pied plus faibles.Au cours de l'usinage, un rayon de pied plus élevé signifie généralement un rayon de tête plus petit de l'outil (taillage, shaping), ce qui affecte l'usure de l'outil et donc les coûts de fabrication. Il est également important de vérifier si un processus d'usinage final comme la rectification de la meule filetée, la rectification de profil ou le honing peut avoir un effet négatif sur les contraintes de pied de dent en raison de la position et du profil de l'encoche de rectification. Ces aspects peuvent être analysés plus en détail grâce au calcul des contraintes de racine en 3D-FEM avec KISSsoft.
