Types of tooth-cutting

Gears and other parts with specific notches are used in all mechanical structures: from watches to heavy construction equipment. In order not to disrupt the operation of the device, their shape must be perfect, and the structure durable. When creating elements, a milling machine with a special blade and a slotting instrument is used. The final result depends on the procedure of processing the workpiece and the foreman’s technique. The following types of work are distinguished:

● cutting and rounding of gears in different variations;

● creation of gearing inside and outside the wheel;

● gear hobbing of pairs, gears, cone-shaped parts and brake pulleys;

● grinding and honing of teeth;

● work with splined bushings, shaft and pairs;

● cutting of worm-type structures.

Foremen perform the tooth-cutting work using the following types of cutters:

● disk cutter – for shaped processing;

● end-mill type gear cutter – for helical gear designs and straight-flute elements with a module of more than 20 mm;

● threaded and face-mill heads – for creating conical protrusions with external engagement;

● slotted head – cut teeth, make engagement in the middle and from the outside;

● combs – a cutter which helps to create cylindrical elements on wheels;

● worm hobs – used in cutting gears with cylindrical oblique, straight and curved teeth;

● planer blades and spinning.
