Barber Colman 1616 Gear Hobbing Machine

Offered Gear hobbing is a mechanical process of production of gears in which gears are cut by a generating process of rotating the gear blank work-piece and the cutter known as the hob at the same time with a specific gearing ratio between the hob and the gear blank work-piece. In the gear hobbing process the gear blank work piece is constantly fed towards the rotating hob until the required depth of the cut is reached. The hob is then constantly fed across the face of the blank till all the teeth are completely cut.
In hobbing of spur gears the hob teeth are set in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the gear blank.
For the production of helical teeth hobbing process the axis of the hob is set over an angle with the gear blank in order to produce the proper helix. The worm gears are manufactured with the axis of the hob being set at the right angles to the gear blank work-piece.
