On the Machining of Involute Helical Gears - Prediction models on tool geometry, cut gear tooth surface topography, chip geometry, and tool cutting forces
The modern requirements on power transmissions focus on energy efficiency, low noise and dynamic vibrations, and power density. In order to meet these requirements, the gear wheels must be manufactured to very high precision. Additionally, it should be economical to manufacture these gears within the tight requested tolerances. Gears manufactured within automotive, truck, and construction equipmen
