Description

Face Hobbing-Continious Process

Continuous process: The workpiece and tool (usually Spiron) rotate at the same time, and all teeth are created in one operation at the same time. Knife head has several knife groups (not arranged in a circle) Parallel tooth Conical tooth tip surface

Single Item procedure: The workpiece is stationary and the tool (usually Arcon) rotates and cuts a tooth by immersing the tool. Once a tooth is cut, the tool moves out of the tooth again, the workpiece divides by one tooth width and the next tooth is cut until all teeth are finished. Knife head has arranged all knives in a circular path. Conical tooth height Parallel tooth head surface

C28 can do both, wheel + pinion. However, a C28 must be “prepared” for the individual part procedure. I.e. direct measuring system + part gear brake, workpiece axis + license file for the production of individual parts.
