...Yi-Pei Shih Face hobbing, a continuous indexing and double-flank cutting process, has become the leading method for manufacturing spiral bevel gears and hypoid gears because of its ability to support high productivity and precision. The method is unsuitable for cutting straight bevel gears, however...

... in gear making, including modulation of tooth surfaces under predesigned transmission errors. This paper proposes such a flank modification methodology for face-hobbing spiral bevel and hypoid gears based on the ease-off topography of the gear drive. First, the established mathematical model...

... surface generation for spiral bevel and hypoid gears produced by face-milling and face-hobbing processes conducted on free-form computer numerical control (CNC) hypoid gear generators which are incorporated with the Universal Motions Concept (UMC); (ii) a modified algorithm of tooth contact simulation...

...Qi Fan, Ph.D. The Gleason face hobbing process has been widely applied by the gear industry. But so far, few papers have been found regarding exact modeling and simulation of the tooth surface generations and tooth contact analysis (TCA) of face hobbed spiral bevel and hypoid gear sets. This paper...
