METHOD AND FORMING SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING A DRUM-SHAPED GEAR PART

摘要

The invention relates to a method and a forming system for producing a gear part through a rotational forming. According to the invention provision is made in that in a preforming step a rotationally symmetrical workpiece is set into rotation about its center axis and, at least through axial feeding and passing of at least one forming roller, a stretch-flow forming is carried out, wherein a cylindrical circumferential wall with a defined target wall thickness is shaped which is smaller than a basic wall thickness of the workpiece. Subsequently, in a finish-forming step the preformed workpiece is clamped onto an inner mandrel with external toothing and set into rotation and at least one profiled toothed roller is fed radially, by which the cylindrical circumferential wall, whilst substantially maintaining the target wall thickness, is formed into the external toothing of the inner mandrel, wherein a drum-shaped toothed region with a splined toothing is shaped.
