Design of a double spiral bevel gearset
It is known that bevel gears are used to transmit rotary motion and torque between intersected axes in case there […]
Technical diagnostics of a gear hobbing technological system on diagnostic signs of deviations of the tooth profile of gears
The article reveals the main provisions of technical diagnostics of a gear hobbing machine system with CNC on the diagnostic […]
Influence of manufacturing variations of spline couplings on gear root and contact stress
Involute splines are widely used in mechanical systems to connect power transmitting gears to their supporting shafts. These splines are […]
Reduction of the tonality of gear noise by application of topography scattering for ground bevel gears
The noise behavior of transmission is mainly caused by the excitation in the gear mesh. The standardized design and calculation […]
Hob quality basics
The quality of a hob directly affects the final quality of the gear it generates. AGMA has developed a standard […]
Inspection & Metrology: Laser interferometry – An enabling technology for optimized automated manufacturing
Technological advances over recent years have elevated metrology from being a “necessary evil” in manufacturing scenarios to enabling technologies, allowing […]
Tooling & Workholding: Improving tool holder performance
The four critical requirements for tool holders are clamping force, concentricity, rigidity, and balance for high-spindle speeds. When these factors […]
Long hob cost savings over the length of a job
Manufacturers consider many factors when shopping for a gear hob solution: What material is being cut? What is the pitch […]
Micro-skiving – (r)evolution of a known production process
Production of internally toothed gear wheels is possible in many different ways. Different techniques such as gashing, broaching, wire EDM, […]
Chamfer Hobbing Tools Up
In the last few years, chamfering and deburring have gained new respect and risen to a level of importance equal […]
Advantages of flat broaching machines
A broaching machine requires precision broaching tools to increase productivity and efficiency. New broaching tools can be expensive and difficult […]
Root cause for noise excitation in geometrically-accurate (perfect) parallel-axes gearing
Gears are extensively used to transmit a rotation from a driving shaft to a driven shaft. Depending on the gear […]
