METHOD OF GRINDING A CUTTER FOR SKIVE-MACHINING AND DEVICE FOR GRINDING THE SKIVE-MACHINING CUTTER

摘要

A method of grinding a cutter for skive-machining a work and a device for grinding the skive-machining cutter which method and device allow formation of a better gear with a cutting operation. The target of grinding is a skive-machining cutter in which a plurality of helical groove portions are formed. A first grinding step is effected for grinding one of a pair of blade lateral faces facing the groove portion. A second grinding step is effected for grinding the other of the pair of blade lateral faces. Then, a third grinding step is effected for forming a blade tip face to be continuous with the blade lateral face formed in the first grinding step and the blade lateral face formed in the second grinding step.
