Day 1. The seminar will introduce delegates to gear geometry inspection. Providing manufacturers with the knowledge to select appropriate measurement methods and equipment; appreciate the importance of applying good measurement practice and how to correctly interpret measurement results. Day 2. Using gear measuring instruments in a pass/fail process fails to maximise the investment made in measuring equipment and the potential to improve the manufacturing process. Strategies for interpreting measurement results and identifying the cause of the measured errors will be presented. Calibration procedures demonstrated to quantify measurement capability and identify common causes of measurement errors.
Gear Cutting & Measurement

14th May 2019 09:30 | The British Gear Association (BGA)

The Seminar will cover: Basic involute gear theory; terms and definitions for spur and helical gears including: Gear terms and definitions; Introduction to the involute form and its construction/tables; Calculations on the above; Practical work on the measurement of gears including calculations on the following: Chordal tooth settings for gear tooth Vernier; Constant chord settings to gear tooth Vernier; Base tangent micrometer settings; Distance over rollers measurement; Basic principles of gear hobbing and shaping. Selection of index and feed change gears. Practical work – setting up and producing spur & helical gears by hobbing and shaping using a Maxicut 2A shaping machine and Sykes H150 hobbing machine.
