Abstract

Due to the symmetrical flank configuration, herringbone gears have no resulting axial forces and a smaller tooth width than helical gears. Because of existing manufacturing limitations, currently only double helical gears with wide center space or assembled herringbone gears are applied.In the present work, a novel machining method for herringbone gears by power skiving is presented. For this purpose, tool and technology are designed using a mathematical process model and tested subsequently. It is shown that the process can produce the required geometry with significant improvements on productivity and accuracy. Additionally, the unused center area can be eliminated.
