Gear Shaping

Gear Shaping

Gear Shaping

The main field of application are the production of internal gears for smaller quantities as well as internal gears in blind holes or on the inside. It is mainly used for cutting spur gears with internal or external gear. By inserting a helical toothed guide and an appropriate cutting wheel, helical geared wheels can also be shaped. Different types of couplings, involute and splines can be produced by using special cutting knives. Examples for workpieces that are often proceed by gear shaping:

• Internal gear rings for planetary gears (ring gears)
• Coupling hubs (internal gearing)
