Looking for an Involute Spline Generator

Hey folks,
Does anyone know of an involute spline generator for creating involute splines between mating shafts for power transmission? I'm looking for something that would create splines like ANSI B92.1 or ISO 4156 Could be DIN 5480

Yes, check out eAssistant or KISSsoft—both offer modules for generating involute splines compliant with standards like ANSI B92.1, ISO 4156, and DIN 5480. For open-source or CAD-integrated tools, look into FreeCAD with the Gear Workbench or custom Python scripts tailored to spline geometry.
Not sure if it's useful for you or not but you can use https://geargenerator.com
To create a dxf or svg. And its nice watching the animated gears. :)
