Abstract
There is disclosed a gear cutting method for cutting a work by a milling cutter of a gear cutting planar having a cutting blade formed in a shape similar to involute curve. It comprises setting the work on a table intermittently rotating on a bed of a main body of the gear cutting planar, measuring and obtaining a heat expanding amount of the work in advance, compensating the feeding amount and the processing pitch of the milling cutter according to expanded dimension of the work at the time when the work is expanded by cutting heat, and cutting the work from a lower part to an upper part thereof by the milling cutter.
Claims3
A gear cutting method for cutting a work with a milling cutter of a gear cutting machine having a cutting blade formed in a shape similar to an involute curve, said gear cutting machine including a main body having a bed on which a table is rotatably mounted, comprising the steps of:
- setting the work on the table intermittently rotating on the bed of said main body of said gear cutting machine;
- measuring and obtaining a heat expansion amount of said work in advance;
- compensating the feeding amount and the processing pitch of said milling cutter according to the expanded dimension of said work at the time when said work is expanded by cutting heat;
- and
- cutting said work from a lower part to an upper part thereof by said milling cutter.
