Hard Finishing of Cylindrical Gears: Gear Skiving with Integrated Cutter Resharpening

By adding the capability of resharpening carbide cutters directly on the gear skiving machine, Gleason has taken a revolutionary step forward in raising the economy and quality for hard finishing carburized and hardened gears. This new development enhances the benefits of gear skiving in virtually every significant area. With the integration of the cutter sharpening process into the machine, gear skiving becomes very desirable for the hard finishing of higher-quality gears in electro-mobility and robotic applications.
