Gear hobbing machine is a mechanical equipment used for machining gears, which can cut a series of tooth grooves on the workpiece to enable the gears to operate normally. 

The working principle of a gear hobbing machine mainly includes workpiece clamping, gear cutting, andGear movement involves three steps.

Workpiece clamping

At the beginning of the operation of the gear hobbing machine, the workpiece needs to be clamped onto the worktable. Usually, fixtures are used to fix the workpiece 

on the workbench to ensure its stability and stability. The design of fixtures should take into account the shape and size of the workpiece to ensure even distribution of clamping force and avoid

The workpiece undergoes movement and deformation during the machining process.

Gear cutting

Once the workpiece is clamped, the gear hobbing machine begins gear cutting. Gear cutting is achieved through the relative motion between the tool and the workpiece. 

Cutting tools are usually blades with cutting teeth. Can be along the axial or circumferential direction of the workpiece

Perform cutting. The cutting tools of gear hobbing machines usually have multiple cutting teeth, which can cut multiple tooth slots at once and improve machining efficiency.

In the process of gear cutting, the cutting teeth of the tool will come into contact with the tooth groove of the workpiece and cut out the tooth groove through rotational motion. 

The cutting process requires controlling the feed rate and cutting depth of the tool to ensure cutting quality and

Processing efficiency. Gear hobbing machines are usually equipped with numerical control systems, which can achieve precise control of tool feed rate and cutting depth.

Gear movement

In the process of gear cutting, the workpiece needs to undergo rotational motion so that the tool can cut continuous tooth grooves. 

Gear hobbing machine achieves gear movement through the rotation of the workpiece. Usually, gear hobbing machines are equipped with a worktable,

The workpiece is clamped on the workbench and driven to rotate by a motor. The rotation speed and direction of the workbench 

can be adjusted according to the machining requirements to achieve the machining of different gears.
