Abstract

The method of gear machining by multi-tooth assembled running-in cutter heads is presented. At machining, these cutter heads reproduce the helical surfaces of constant or variable pitch and are equipped with industrially common carbide plates (in an important special case—multi-faceted disposable ones). Mathematical models used for calculation of generating parameters, generated surfaces and their evaluation are considered. The obtained results, opportunities, preferences and limitations in selecting parameters are analyzed. Fundamentals of the tool design technique and equipment preparation for cutting by the proposed method are given. Examples of practical implementation of this method in serial and single production of spiroid, worm gears (including single-thread and multi-thread ones) and bevel gears with spiral-shaped (curvilinear) teeth are given.

The novelty of the technology is that it can become and, evidently, has already become a highly economical and rather efficient alternative to the traditional production methods for the listed gears.

Zusammenfassung

Es wird das Verfahren der Zahnradbearbeitung mit mehrzahnigen Einlaufmesserköpfen vorgestellt. Bei Bearbeitung bilden diese Messerköpfe die Schrägflächen mit konstanter oder variabler Steigung ab und sind mit industrieüblichen Hartmetallplatten (in einem wichtigen Sonderfall – mehrkantigen Einwegplatten) ausgestattet. Mathematische Modelle zur Berechnung von Erzeugungsparametern, erzeugten Oberflächen und deren Auswertung werden betrachtet. Die erzielten Ergebnisse, Möglichkeiten, Vorzüge und Grenzen bei der Auswahl der Parameter werden analysiert. Es werden die Grundlagen der Werkzeugkonstruktion und der Vorbereitung der Ausrüstung für das Schneiden mit der vorgeschlagenen Methode werden dargelegt. Beispiele für die praktische Anwendung dieser Methode bei der Serien- und Einzelfertigung von Stirnrädern, Schneckenrädern (einschließlich ein- und mehrgängiger Räder) und Kegelrädern mit spiralförmigen (gekrümmten) Zähnen werden gegeben.

Das Neue an dieser Technologie ist, dass sie eine sehr wirtschaftliche und effiziente Alternative zur herkömmlichen Produktion von Zahnrädern sein kann und offensichtlich auch schon ist und ziemlich effiziente Alternative zu den traditionellen Produktionsmethoden für die genannten Zahnräder werden kann und bereits geworden ist.
