![]() ![]() This type of technology is especially interesting for the manufacture of high module gears (4–12 mm), where it is not so common to find specific gear cutting machines as in the case of lower value modules. However, the eruption in the market of multitasking or multiprocess machines, and the continuous improvement experienced in the area of numerical controls and CAM software, has led to the appearance of a suitable medium for the manufacturing of these complex geometric elements in general purpose machines and with standard tools. ![]() There are different methods for traditional gear cutting, for example, some of the most commonly used are: (1) gear hobbing with perimeter cut (Gleason) (2) continuous generation by spiral hobbing with perimeter cut (Cyclo-Palloid from Klingelnberg and Oerlikon) and (3) continuous generation by spiral hobbing with conic type cut (Palloid from Klingelnberg). Traditionally, these types of gears have been manufactured with specific gear cutting machines. Nowadays, there is a continuous demand for energy, and consequently, there has been an increase in the amount of equipment dedicated to energy generation and its components, such as large sized spiral gear. ![]() This is the case for equipment dedicated to thermal energy generation, ship propulsion systems, wind turbines or power transmission in the aeronautical sector, among many others. Large size spiral bevel gears are frequently used in applications that require smooth and silent high-power transmission. ![]()
