A New Look

for Gear Milling?

Technology and its products are often causative: a
technology might be applied to develop more effective and
intelligent products, which in turn can play an important
role in advancing that technology.

Over the last few years, leading-edge technology has
resulted in multitasking machine tools and machining
centers with impressive working possibilities. At the
same time, this progress in machine tool engineering
is significantly changing metal cutting technology.

The advanced multifunctional machine tools
increasingly widen the range of machining operations
that can be performed. Technological processes
developed for these machines are oriented to
maximize machining operation for one-setup
manufacturing, creating a new source for more
accurate and productive manufacturing. Milling
gears and splines is one of the operations suitable
for performing on the new machines.

Traditionally, gear (and spline) making is a
complicated process that involves milling,
chamfering, grinding and other operations.
With batch manufacturing, the majority is made on
specific machines: gear hobbing, gear shaving, gear
grinding and so on. Developments in technology
have changed the limits of hardness for cutting and
considerably increased operational accuracy.
