We supply software and 3-dimensional IGES models ( sample 1, sample 2, sample 3, sample 4) of spiral bevel and other gears. Our customers use 3d models to program 3.4,5-axis CNC machines to cut spiral bevel gears (sample 1_1, sample 3_1)
3,4,5-axis cnc Gear manufacturing History
In 1986 Direct Digital Simulation method has been applied to spiral bevel gears commonly produced on Gleason, Klingelnberg and Oerlikon gear cutting machines. Today, the new mathematical tool improves calculation accuracy of the critical elements of the gear design such as tooth contact pattern, transmission error, rolling, sliding, contact stress and other.
Direct Digital Simulation (DDS) method has been introduced in Russia in 1986, in Sweden in 2000, in Japan in 2002, and in the US in 2003. The value of DDS has not been recognized until practical software products have been delivered to General Motors, Chrysler, Volvo and others in 1998-2006.
The DDS method has become valuable for new gear technology because:
First, the DDS resulted in development of more efficient CNC milling gear manufacturing process.
Second, the new method offered a better alternative to the traditional theory of gears because it works better for gear design, gear analyzes, and for gear manufacturing.
Third, the new method is not as complicated as the traditional theory of gearing. The simplicity of the mew method results in cost reduction and higher quality.
After introduction of DDS in 1986, the fundamental gear theory based on the equation NV=0 became unpopular.
In 1986, a new and better method of design and manufacturing has been introduced.
