Summary

"Billions of gears are produced for use in the aerospace, construction, and agricultural machinery industries, yet the cost of gear cutting tools themselves represents more than half the total cost of the gear machining operation. With an improved understanding of gear machining process and tool design, engineers and scientists can potentially streamline the methods involved to dramatically slash production costs and enhance efficiency." "Gear Cutting Tools: Fundamentals of Design and Computation addresses this issue, presenting the DG/K-based method of surface generation, a novel and practical mathematical method for designing gear cutting tools with optimal parameters. The author, an industry leader for the past 30 years, proposes a scientific classification of kinematic schemes of gear machining before discussing the best possible tool designs. This classification makes it possible to consider gear cutting tool designs currently in practice and those expected to be used in the future. This book also facilitates development of scientific predictions, and in most cases it provides optimal designs and solutions in analytical and/or graphical form."--BOOK JACKET.
