Axis type

One method of gear processing is the forming method, which uses a forming milling cutter that matches the shape of the tooth slots exactly to cut the tooth shape, such as gear milling; the other method is the generating method, which uses the mutual meshing motion of the tool and the passive gear to cut the tooth shape, such as hobbing and shaping (demonstrated with hobs and shaper cutters). Below is an introduction to the method of processing gears using a milling machine. Cylindrical spur gears can be machined on a horizontal milling machine using a disc milling cutter or on a vertical milling machine using a finger milling cutter. Here, we take the example of a cylindrical spur gear with z=16 (i.e., 16 teeth) and m=2 (i.e., a modulus of 2) on a horizontal milling machine to introduce the gear milling process. 1. Check the Size of the Gear Blank Mainly check the diameter of the pitch circle to facilitate adjustments to the cutting depth, increasing or decreasing based on the actual pitch circle diameter to ensure the correct tooth thickness on the pitch circle. 2. Gear Clamping and Calibration.
