The entire gear is cut as part of a single process, without interim removal/reinsertion of the gear blank or manual tool changeover.

[Maciej Nowak] demonstrates just how to produce your own gears with a homemade cutting tool. The cutting tool for the job is an M16 machine tap, chosen for the smaller flutes compared to a hand tap.

Traditional gear-cutting machines may run faster. However, the tooling economics, increased accuracy through one-setup machining and improved process control, make the overall costs of 5-axis machines ...

The company, in Warren, Ohio, retrofits hobbers, gear-cutting machines, and grinders. The process starts, explains Bartholomew, with a mechanically sound machine because the retrofit is not a band-aid ...

In the 19th century, The Gleason Works invented a machine tool capable of cutting hypoidal gears, using complex mechanical linkages to rotate cutting tools and the gear being cut simultaneously.
