NanoEngineer - Mark III(k) Planetary Gears

This is the MarkIII(k), a planetary gear created by K. Eric Drexler. A planetary gear couples  an input shaft via a sun gear to an output shaft through a set of planet gears (attached to the  output shaft by a planet carrier). The planet gears roll between the sun gear and a ring gear  on the inner surface of a casing. The animation below was produced from a NanoEngineer-1  molecular dynamics simulation. A section...
