Abstract
To reduce the skiving cutter cost and make the power skiving more flexible, a novel skiving method is proposed by optimizing the machine setting parameters using a common shaper cutter. First, the mathematical model of power skiving for working an involute cylinder gear was established based on the engagement principle of crossed helical gear. Then, a common shaper cutter profile deviations caused by the cutting angles was derived. By analyzing the relationship between the tooth deviations and the machine setting parameters, a correction method for both flanks power skiving is proposed to correct the machine setting parameter using the principle of linear superposition and the linear regression method. The validity of the correction method for power skiving is numerically demonstrated as working an involute cylinder gear for example. The results show that power skiving process can be achieve by the common shaper cutter and makes the latest technology more flexible and economic.
