Optimise machine performance with gear cutting services by DISKEDGE. Know the role of this service in ensuring precision in manufacturing vital components.
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of various machines, gear cutting must be carried out by experts from DISKEDGE. Gears play a huge role in the functionality of industrial equipment. To improve their efficiency and reliability in countless applications, gear cutting must be carried out. This process is generally known for achieving the desired tooth profile, pitch, and surface finish of the gears. By hiring DISKEDGE, the gears are expected to mesh seamlessly, transmitting motion efficiently without excessive noise or wear.
The Process of Gear Cutting
Gear cutting is a specialised manufacturing process that involves shaping gear teeth on a blank gear using cutting tools such as hobbing, milling, or shaping. This process requires meticulous attention to detail to accomplish the desired tooth profile, pitch, and surface finish. Some types of gears that can be subjected to this process are spur gears, helical gears, and bevel gears.
The first step involved in gear cutting is blank preparation. The gear blank, usually made from materials like steel or brass, is prepared and mounted securely in the gear cutting machine. Next, an appropriate cutting tool is chosen based on the gear type and specifications. It is then installed and aligned with the gear blank. The gear cutting machine subsequently initiates the rotation of the gear blank and the movement of the cutting tool. Material is gradually removed from the gear blank to shape the gear teeth to the desired profile and dimensions.
After cutting, gears may undergo additional finishing processes to achieve the desired surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Each gear is thoroughly inspected to meet the required tolerances and quality standards.
