Wonders of technology – gear cutting
The production of precise gears can be a challenge for the manufacturer. The choice of tooling solution for the production of gears depends on various factors: Module sizes, batch sizes and the available machine technology are the main factors that determine the manufacturing technology to be selected. In particular, the newer machine tools with coupled and synchronised axes today offer possibilities for gear manufacturing that were previously reserved for special machines.

Combining power skiving and turning – For complex gear cutting solutions
For many gear manufacturers, power skiving is getting very interesting, since the technique is much faster than shaping and more flexible than hobbing and broaching. However, the technique was considered quite complex. Against this backdrop, the new development by EMAG is a game changer. Firstly, with the VSC 400 PS, the operator makes only a few data entries. Secondly, the VSC 400 PS can be equipped with up to four power skiving tools and six turning tools. More...
