In the frame of the activity of JSME RC-268 committee, new bevel gear i.e. Invo-Planar bevel gear is developed, the tooth flank of which wheel is plane or whose transverse tooth profile is straight line. The cutting/grinding time of this bevel wheel can be more than 10 times shorter than the working time for conventional bevel gear wheel, when it is cut with 5-axis machine, because it cuts or grind the tooth flank through one path of tool movement. The finished tooth flank is far smoother than the curved tooth flank manufactured by many paths of cutting blades of tool. The production rate of the mating pinion with 5-axis machine is same as that of conventional bevel pinion. Some experiences in the production, quality of the product gears and performance survey of this new bevel gear is introduced to promote the discussion.
