Implementación Virtual del Proceso de Fabricación de un Engranaje Cónico Espiral en un Centro de Mecanizado Vertical de 4+1 Grados de Libertad

Abstract

A spiral bevel gear was developed following the geometry proposed in the ISO standard. 23509:2006, following its most representative characteristics such as: the angle of helix, pressure angle and thickness changes in the tooth along the crown, generating a complex geometry. For the simulation of the entire manufacturing process, the NX software and its manufacturing module, this in order to verify, avoid possible collisions and unwanted displacements when manufacturing the part, also avoiding the use of specialized machines for carving. The tooth design is usually obtained with the machine tool and cutting tool, which is why it encourages consulting other Strategies for obtaining the geometry of the tooth and generating its cut through the process from Face Milling. After generating the gear in a CAD software, its process is planned manufacturing taking into account the limitations of the machining center FINETECH GTX-210, selecting the type of material to work with and the cutting tools designated for each operation to be executed.
