A Method for Generating Helical Surface of the VPA Hob on a CNC Worm Grinding Machine

Variable pressure angle (VPA) hob is an important cutting tool for generating the twist-free tooth flanks on a crowned involute helical gear used in the high precision gear boxes. However, an appropriate method for generating the VPA hob surface has not proposed yet. Therefore, this paper presents a...

description Variable pressure angle (VPA) hob is an important cutting tool for generating the twist-free tooth flanks on a crowned involute helical gear used in the high precision gear boxes. However, an appropriate method for generating the VPA hob surface has not proposed yet. Therefore, this paper presents a worm grinding method for generating the helical surface of VPA hob on a CNC worm grinding machine. A mathematical model of the proposed method is established based on a standard hob by controlling rotational motion of the hob axis in the worm grinding process. A numerical example is implemented to verify the merits of the proposed method.
