Contact SupplierGear Cutting Tools are precision-engineered instruments used to manufacture various gear types including spur, helical, bevel, and worm gears, ensuring accurate tooth profiles and consistent pitch dimensions. These tools are typically made from high-speed steel (HSS), carbide, or other wear-resistant materials to withstand the high loads and thermal stresses of cutting operations. Common types include gear hobs, gear shapers, milling cutters, broaches, and form relieved cutters, each tailored for specific gear geometry and machining processes. The tools are designed with exacting tolerances to deliver high surface finish and dimensional accuracy, complying with standards such as DIN, AGMA, and ISO. Coatings like TiN, TiAlN, or DLC are often applied to enhance tool life, reduce friction, and improve performance in high-speed dry or lubricated cutting environments. Gear cutting tools are used on CNC gear hobbing machines, gear shapers, and milling centers, and support both roughing and finishing operations. They are essential in automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, and transmission manufacturing, where precision and repeatability are critical.
