Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for gear skiving a workpiece, wherein: in a first step, the geometry of a tool, in particular of a skiving wheel, is measured for the machining of the workpiece in a state clamped in an apparatus for gear skiving machining; and in a subsequent further step, machining kinematics are determined for the gear skiving in dependence on the measured geometry of the tool characterized in that the absolute location of a cutting edge of the tool in the apparatus is determined in the first step.
Claims11
A method for skiving a gear workpiece, wherein:
- in a first step, one or more geometrical parameters of a geometry of a tool are measured for machining of a gear workpiece, where the tool is in a clamped state in a gear machining apparatus,
- the gear machining apparatus comprising a machining head, a tool mount, and a machine table, wherein the tool is mounted on the machining head via the tool mount, and wherein the gear workpiece is mounted on the machine table;
- and
- in a subsequent further step, machining kinematics are determined for the skiving of the gear workpiece in dependence on the measured one or more geometrical parameters of the geometry of the tool,
- wherein determining the machining kinematics includes determining machining kinematics parameters, the machining kinematics parameters including one or more of a coupling position, a center distance, an axial cross angle, and a rake face offset parameters, and
- wherein a location of a cutting edge of the tool is determined in the first step, based on a position of the tool in the tool mount in the gear machining apparatus.
