The operation of a CNC gear hobbing machine involves multiple steps and precautions to ensure a safe and efficient machining process.

 The following are the basic steps and precautions for operating a CNC gear hobbing machine:

preparation:

Choose the appropriate cutting tool and cutting fluid, and select the appropriate gear shaping tool and cutting fluid based on the gear parameters, materials, and requirements of the workpiece to be machined.

Conduct a safety check to ensure that all components of the gear hobbing machine are complete, securely installed, and all circuits are functioning properly.

Clean the surface of the processed workpiece to ensure that it is flat, clean, and free of debris.

Operation steps:

Fix the machining workpiece on the fixture and adjust the angle to ensure that the workpiece does not produce jumping and shaking during the machining process.

Choose a gear cutter, select a suitable gear cutter based on the gear parameters of the workpiece, and install the gear cutter on the tool holder.

Equip cutting fluid and inject appropriate cutting fluid into the gap between the workpiece and the gear cutter.

Set processing parameters, such as depth, speed, and feed rate, to ensure processing efficiency and quality.

Start the gear hobbing machine, place the workpiece under the cutting tool, and press the start button to start machining.

Check the processing quality, observe the processing quality in a timely manner during the processing, and make timely adjustments if any problems are found.

matters needing attention:

Before operation, ensure that the gear hobbing machine is in a safe state and wear protective measures during processing.

Strictly follow the operating procedures and do not operate randomly.

Choose appropriate cutting tools, cutting fluids, and accessories to ensure machining quality.

During the machining process, ensure that the workpiece does not exceed the edge and that the surface of the workpiece is not damaged.

After processing, thoroughly clean the machine, tools, and cutting fluid, and replace faulty parts in a timely manner.

Following these steps and precautions can ensure safe operation and efficient machining of CNC gear hobbing machines.
