Customize Gear Skiving for Precise, Efficient Gear Cutting

Manufacturers have a relatively new production option that offers several key advantages—gear skiving on machining centers. Gear skiving on a mill-turn machining center with fully synchronous spindles is highly efficient, fast, and accurate. In some cases when producing small and medium-sized volumes, gear skiving will gradually replace established gear-cutting processes.

Hard Skiving of an Internal DIN5480 Spline—A Process Analysis

This report uses an application case to demonstrate the optimization potential of gear skiving in the production of internal splines on a universal machining center. The process established in the example is then analyzed using the software tool OpenSkiving developed by the wbk Institute of Production Science of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and the results are discussed. Finally, the most important findings are summarized.
