Research on an algorithms for an NC machining hypoid pinion

摘要

Based on the flexibility characteristics of the NC machine tool, which means that various motions can be performed arbitrarily on NC machine tools, a new algorithm for manufacturing a hypoid pinion is proposed. This gets rid of the limitation of traditional mechanical machine tools and their algorithms. When the cutter tilt method is combined with the modification method, a method of manufacturing the pinion with a prescribed-size cutter on an NC machine tool can be realised. This helps to simplify cutter specifications and realise the error compensation of the cutter size. In this paper the algorithm is derived. According to the equations of cutting, the machine settings are calculated.
