Process and Tool Design Optimization for Hypoid Gears with the Help of the Manufacturing Simulation BevelCut

In this paper, the mode of operation as well as the current scope of the manufacturing simulation BevelCut was presented. The cutting characteristics for an exemplary design were evaluated for both pinion and ring gear manufactured using face hobbing rolling and plunging. A relationship between the simulation results and cutting phenomena was established. Based on this relationship, corrective measures were deduced. The simulation results show a successful optimization of the tool and process parameters for the gear design. Thus, for the first time, a simulation-based tool and process optimization were conducted for face-hobbing processes.
