Thank you! My dad explained the process to me many years ago. I understood it then but didn't remember. This was a good refresher. This is how a spur gear with an actual involute profile is made. The process of cutting one tooth at a time on a horizontal mill creates a simulation of an involute profile (good enough for many applications).
Here we have a machine. Ahh here we have a lever, and all the way over here is the knob to open the control panel door. Amazing details about gear hobbing.
@@Habul1978 can you call me sir , 9922349349 or give your cellular number , i want some information , gear ratio calculation , how to set gear on machine ..thanks
I want to make two gears with 8cm od and 1.5 cm od meshed together. Can u pls tell me what are the total information required in maching the gear, total data.
Maybe this particular gear could have been laser cut, but tolerances wouldn't be great at 8mm thickness, and you might get scaling or burning on the surface. You also can't laser cut any gear that's not straight-toothed.
@@RhysMogg what I was meaning to say was laser cut leaving material for a finish machining cut. They probably could be waterjet cut at finish tolerance. I use to get waterjet parts cut that were incredibly accurate to my specs.
@@dabooge Agreed, I've only water jet cut a few parts, but they do seem to be extremely accurate. And you can cut through 9" thick steel, which is just outrageous. Still need the old hobbing machine for helical gears though 😜
You set machine walk away set up another machine go on to next one that three hours takes no time at all and remember to have a cup of tea in the mean time.
