There are no great advances in gear technology described here. The topics discussed are all covered in greater detail in other books, some of which are listed in the “reference” section. The author hopes that this little volume will be of use to the occasional gear designer as a source of handy information and direction to more complete answers to the questions that arise during the design process. About the 2nd Edition After nishing this book in 1987 I vowed never to write another gear book. During the years since, however, I came to look at this little volume with a more critical eye and decided it needed just a little updating. What started out as a simple “scan it into the computer and make it look more modern” project grew into a major re-writing eort. I’ve tried to incorporate the lessons learned in 10 years of busy engineering practice at Milwaukee Gear and Pittsburgh Gear. I hope the additional gures and tables will be of value. Despite the modern convenience of spell check, I’m sure there are a few typos left, and that a 3rd edition will be needed in a few years to correct them.1 Sample — BD Tech Concepts LLC 1Editor’s note: This document is a 2015 revision based on a scan of the 2nd Edition.

  • Manufacturing Glossary
    MANUFACTURING GLOSSARY Aging – A change in the properties of certain metals and alloys that occurs at ambient or moderately elevated temperatures after a hot-working operation or a heat-treatment (quench aging in ferrous alloys, natural or artificial aging in ferrous and nonferrous alloys) or after a cold-working operation (strain aging). The change in properties is often, but not always, due to a phase change (precipitation), but never involves a change in chemical composition of the metal or alloy. Abrasive – Garnet, emery, carborundum, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, diamond, cubic boron nitride, or other material in various grit sizes used for grinding, lapping, polishing, honing, pressure blasting, and other operations. Each abrasive particle acts like a tiny, single-point tool that cuts a small chip; with hundreds of thousands of points doing so, high metal-removal rates are possible while providing a good finish. Abrasive Band – Diamond- or other abrasive-coated endless band fitted to a special band machine for machining hard-to-cut materials. Abrasive Belt – Abrasive-coated belt used for production finishing, deburring, and similar functions.See coated abrasive. Abrasive Cutoff Disc – Blade-like disc with abrasive particles that parts stock in a slicing motion. Abrasive Cutoff Machine, Saw – Machine that uses blade-like discs impregnated with abrasive particles to cut/part stock. See saw, sawing machine. Abrasive Flow Machining – Finishing operation for holes, inaccessible areas, or restricted passages. Done by clamping the part in a fixture, then extruding semisolid abrasive media through the passage. Often, multiple parts are loaded into a single fixture and finished simultaneously. Abrasive Machining – Various grinding, honing, lapping, and polishing operations that utilize abrasive particles to impart new shapes, improve finishes, and part stock by removing metal or other material.See grinding.

  • General Applications of Gears
    UNIT - III GEAR MANUFACTURING PROCESS SPRX1008 – PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY - II Gears are widely used in various mechanisms and devices to transmit power and motion positively (without slip) between parallel, intersecting (axis) and non-intersecting non parallel shafts, •without change in the direction of rotation •with change in the direction of rotation •without change of speed (of rotation) •with change in speed at any desired ratio Often some gearing system (rack – and – pinion) is also used to transform Rotary motion into linear motion and vice-versa. Fig.1 Features of Spur Gear Gears are basically wheels having, on its periphery, equispaced teeth which are so designed that those wheels transmit, without slip, rotary motion smoothly and uniformly with minimum friction and wear at the mating tooth – profiles. To achieve those favorable conditions, most of the gears have their tooth form based on in volute curve, which can simply be defined as Locus of a point on a straight line which is rolled on the periphery of a circle or Locus of the end point of a stretched string while its unwinding over a cylinder as indicated in Fig. General Applications of Gears Gears of various type, size and material are widely used in several machines and systems requiring positive and stepped drive. The major applications are: • Speed gear box, feed gear box and some other kinematic units of machine tools • Speed drives in textile, jute and similar machineries • Gear boxes of automobiles • Speed and / or feed drives of several metal forming machines • Machineries for mining, tea processing etc. • Large and heavy duty gear boxes used in cement industries, sugar industries, cranes, conveyors etc.

  • New Technology of Gear Cutting That Contributes to Customer's
    Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Technical Review Vol. 49 No. 3 (September 2012) 29 Latest Gear Cutting Technology that Improves Customer Productivity (Increase in Speed of ST Series NC Guide Gear Shaping Machine) TOSHIMASA KIKUCHI*1 YOSHIHIRO NOSE*2 KATSUHIDE YABE*2 TAKAHIDE TOKAWA*3 Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) was the first company in the world to establish the dry cut system, which contributes to a clean work environment and high productivity by eliminating the use of cutting oil for the processing of gears. We have been actively offering new technologies, including the one mentioned above, that satisfy the needs of customers. There is a growing need for further improvement of productivity, including the reduction of processing time, from mass production lines of automobiles and other products, as well as from job shops that manufacture multiple types of gears in small quantity. In this paper, we will introduce the latest technologies for productivity improvement of gear cutting machines, taking the ST series NC guide gear shaping machine, one of the gear cutting machines developed by MHI, as an example. |1. Introduction A gear shaper is a gear cutting machine that is generally used to process internal gears and stepped gears. As shown in Figure 1, the cutter and the workpiece are rotated synchronously while the cutter is moved back and forth for processing gears. The gear shaper features a unique function, where a helical guide is used to move gears helically along the cutter lead for the processing of helical gears that are twisted along the helical path. The helical guide needs to be replaced responding to the change of the cutter lead, but helical guides are expensive and replacement requires a fair amount of time and a lot of skill.

  • MHI Super-Skiving System for Longer Tool Life and Enhanced Efficiency in Internal Gear Cutting
    Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Technical Review Vol. 52 No. 1 (March 2015) 101 MHI Super-Skiving System for Longer Tool Life and Enhanced Efficiency in Internal Gear Cutting TETSUJI MONDEN*1 TOSHIMASA KIKUCHI*1 YU CHIHARA*1 YOZO NAKAMURA*2 In recent years, the automotive industry has been demanding high-precision and high-efficiency processing of internal gears (ring gears) used for planetary gear devices in terms of improvement of fuel efficiency and reduction of noise. To achieve these, manufacturers are developing a skiving cutting system expected to realize high precision and high efficiency. However, the conventional skiving cutting system using a gear shaper cutter (skiving cutting) has not come into practical use because, in principle, its cutting load is large and, therefore, tool life is shortened and production costs are increased. Against such a background, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) has established a process technology with similar accuracy to the skiving cutting while exceeding it in efficiency and tool life. This paper presents the process technology. |1. Introduction An internal gear is used mainly for planetary gear devices for automobile automatic transmissions (AT) and reducers of construction machines. Figure 1 shows the increase/decrease prediction in domestic automobile AT production numbers by type. Production volume of internal gears is expected to expand along with the increase of the number of AT gear stages (increase of planetary gear devices) and of CVT and hybrid vehicles for the purpose of fuel efficiency improvement. Figure 1 Prediction of increase or decrease in domestic automobile AT production numbers (This graph indicates the increase or decrease in production numbers taking 2011 as the base year.)

  • Simple and Inexpensive Hobbing for the General Shop
    International Journal of Engineering Inventions e-ISSN: 2278-7461, p-ISSN: 2319-6491 Volume 4, Issue 8[January 2015] PP:14-22 Simple and Inexpensive Hobbing for the General Shop Robert H. Sturges, Jr. Abstract: -Gearmaking is typically the province of specialty enterprises due to the substantial investment in particular machine tools designed for the purpose. General lathes and milling machines do not lend themselves to fine gearmaking, although wire EDM is becoming more widely used and can serve in this capacity according to the limits of its articulated degrees of freedom. In this article, we introduce a new, simplified method of generating precision gears of the spur, worm, or helical types that has been adapted for general purpose milling machine use. The method can use standard taps to make gears of standard 30-degree pressure angles, ACME taps to create standard 14-1/2 degree pressure angles, as well as standard hobs for 20-degree or metric gear standards. I. INTRODUCTION Gearmaking through the generation of involute profiles [1] has been known since about the 17th century, and the first hobbing machines appeared in about 1835 [2]. Machines for the production of both spur and helical gears appeared in about 1897. [3] The standardization of gear profiles and methods was introduced by the American Gear Makers Association (AGMA) in 1916, [4] and continues to improve processes and productivity for its members. Form tools specially ground for the purpose have been used for the creation of gears by milling and shaving. Also, specialized cutting practices are needed to make dies for the high- throughput process of plastic injection molded gear products.
