Five-Step Interlocking Gears Diagram Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Description

Use this dynamic infographic slide to illustrate five interdependent components or stages with precision and visual impact. Five 3D-style vector gears—emerald green, sunflower yellow, royal blue, pumpkin orange, and fuchsia magenta—interlock across the slide, each casting a soft shadow on the clean white background. Beneath each gear, a matching colored underline anchors a customizable headline and body text block, ideal for labeling processes, system modules, or team functions.

Built on master slides with fully editable vector shapes, this template lets you adjust gear size, swap colors, or replace icons and labels in seconds. Subtle reflections beneath each gear add depth, while consistent stroke widths and corner radii maintain a polished, professional look. The white canvas and minimal decorative elements keep audience attention focused on the mechanics of your workflow, system architecture, or organizational structure.

Designed for both PowerPoint and Google Slides, the slide ensures seamless compatibility, precise alignment, and hassle-free collaboration. You can easily reposition gears to depict sequential flows or circular feedback loops, update text placeholders with metrics or milestones, and integrate your brand palette by modifying style presets. Accessibility-friendly color contrasts and vector-based graphics guarantee full-resolution clarity on any device. Ideal for technical overviews, operational reviews, or strategic roadmaps, this interlocking gears diagram brings complex interactions to life with a clear, engaging visual metaphor.
