Manufacturing process
- Preforming the gear blank via casting, forging, or cutting from standard stock rods and billets.
- Annealing of the blank if required, especially for forged or cast steels.
- Machining the gear blank to required dimensions on lathes and milling machines.
- Producing gear teeth through hobbing, shaping, milling, or broaching processes.
- Hardening the machined gear and teeth through full or surface heat treatment induction processes.
- Finishing the teeth using shaving, grinding, honing, and lapping processes to achieve precise tolerances.
- Inspecting the finished gears using profile inspection and other testing machines.
