2. Hobbing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobbing

   A gear hob in a hobbing machine with a finished gear. The hob is a cutting tool used to cut the teeth into the workpiece. It is cylindrical in shape with helical cutting teeth. These teeth have grooves that run the length of the hob, which aid in cutting and chip removal. There are also special hobs designed for special gears such as the spline ...

3. Gear shaping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_shaping

   The machine used for gear shaping generally consists of a base, column spindle, and an arbor. The gear cutter is mounted on the spindle, and the gear blank is mounted on the arbor. The cutter reciprocates up and down while the workpiece is gradually fed into the cutter.

4. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

   Planes at a pitch point on a helical tooth. A normal plane is normal to a tooth surface at a pitch point, and perpendicular to the pitch plane. In a helical rack, a normal plane is normal to all the teeth it intersects. In a helical gear, however, a plane can be normal to only one tooth at a point lying in the plane surface.

5. Gear cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_cutting

   The number of the gear cutter is determined by the tooth count of the gear to be cut. To machine a helical gear on a manual machine, a true indexing fixture must be used. Indexing fixtures can disengage the drive worm, and be attached via an external gear train to the machine table's handle (like a power feed). It then operates similarly to a ...

6. Gear manufacturing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_manufacturing

   Gear hobbing is a machining process in which gear teeth are progressively generated by a series of cuts with a helical cutting tool. All motions in hobbing are rotary, and the hob and gear blank rotate continuously as in two gears meshing until all teeth are cut.

7. Milling cutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_cutter

   Flutes / teeth: The flutes of the milling bit are the deep helical grooves running up the cutter, while the sharp blade along the edge of the flute is known as the tooth. The tooth cuts the material, and chips of this material are pulled up the flute by the rotation of the cutter.

8. Reduction drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_drive

   The double helical gear set can also be called a herringbone gear and consists of two oppositely angled sets of teeth. A single set of helical teeth will produce a thrust parallel to the axle of the gear (known as axial thrust) due to the angular nature of the teeth. By adding a second set opposed to the first set, the axial thrust created by ...

9. Gear - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

   A worm gear is a species of helical gear, but its helix angle is usually somewhat large (close to 90 degrees) and its body is usually fairly long in the axial direction. These attributes give it screw like qualities. The distinction between a worm and a helical gear is that at least one tooth persists for a full rotation around the helix.
