Procedure and design of a Gear Hobbing Machine

Saurav thakur

Abstract


Making gears involves using a hobbing machine. Sprockets, gears, and splined components are cut using a hob, a specialised cutting tool, on a hobbing machine, a sort of milling device. The hob is a cylinder-shaped cutting tool with helical-shaped teeth arranged in rows. Sprockets, gears, and splined components are cut using a hob, a specialised cutting tool, on a hobbing machine, a sort of milling device. The hob is a cylinder-shaped cutting tool with helical-shaped teeth positioned in rows The work item is held on one spindle of the hobbing machine, and the hob is on the other. As both the hob and the workpiece are brought into the spindles rotate at a specified ratio to cut the teeth. Hobbing machines can produce a variety of goods, including worm gears, ratchets, involute gears, and helical gears, at a low cost with high accuracy.
