Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing or machining a toothing (2) on a workpiece (3), in which method the workpiece, which is rotationally driven about its axis of rotation (C), is brought into rolling machining engagement with tool toothing (5) rotating about an axis of rotation (C2) which is, in particular, at a non-null crossed-axes angle to the axis of rotation of the workpiece, wherein the machining operation is automatically monitored, using sensors to record same automatically, already at the machine operation stage for a recurring irregularity originating from tool wear (52), in particular higher wear of at least one tool tooth (51) compared to other tool teeth.
Claims18
A skiving method of producing or machining toothing on a workpiece, in which method the workpiece, which is rotationally driven about its axis of rotation (C), is brought into rolling machining engagement with tool toothing rotating about an axis of rotation (C2) which is at a non-null crossed-axes angle (2) to the axis of rotation of the workpiece, said method comprising a plurality of machining passes of said tool relative to said workpiece for producing said toothing,
- wherein the method further comprises,
- automatically monitoring the machining operation by sensory detection comprising using sensors to record same, already at the machine operation stage, for a recurring irregularity originating from tool wear of at least one tool tooth compared to other tool teeth.
A gear cutting machine for producing or machining a toothing on a workpiece with a rotatably driven bearing for the workpiece and a rotatably driven bearing for a toothed tool and a control device for controlling a machining operation that takes place in a rolling coupling,
- wherein an automatic monitoring device comprising at least one sensor which device monitors the machining operation, using sensors to record same, already at the machine operation stage for a recurring irregularity originating from tool wear of at least one tool tooth compared to other tool teeth.
