Abstract
Conventional gear cutting requires coolant, whose use complicates the work process and whose disposal endangers the environment. Dry gear cutting requires a tool that can be used without coolant and a gear cutting machine that discharges chips. We developed a hob and a gearshapercutter of high speed steels having proprietary TiAIN coatings and a dry gear hobbing machine and a dry gear shaping machine to realize hobbing and gearshaping. These dry cutting systems are environmentally friendly and cut total machining costs, double cutting speed, extend tool life 5times, and also the process capabilities are improved. As a result the product quality can be also improved.
