Gear crowning/barrelling
Crowned gears are
necessary where noise is a concern. Crowning gear teeth reduces
noise by alleviating misalignment through either assembly or
thrust problems.
We are able to achieve
crowning by any one of three means. One is by crown hobbing in
one of our gear hobbing machines, without any additional
process. We can also straight hob the gear teeth, then crown
shave the teeth, achieving the necessary crown but also an even
higher standard gear, and lastly we can straight hob and crown
gear grind the gear to get the highest standard possible.
Our barrelling
machines are used for cleaning and
polishing metal and plastics and can give a
variety of finishes included matt and shine. They are
used primarily to remove sharp edges or scratches.
