Description of the interactions during gear rolling as a basis for a method for the prognosis of the attainable quality parameters

摘要

Gear rolling develops increasingly to an economic alternative for the production of highly exact gears. Crucial criterion for broad industrial application of gear rolling is thereby the attainable gear quality. This depends at present still on a process and machine design, which is based on empirical expert knowledge. In order to finally develop a method, which makes a sufficiently safe prognosis for the attainable gear quality possible on the basis of real process data, in the context of a interdisciplinary research project the relevant interactions of the system machine-tool-process are determined, described and modeled in suitable form. Apart from the fundamental aspects of this problem the contribution argues in particular with the problem of the influence of the interactions of the machine system on the pitch accuracy of gear teeth.
