A precise analysis has been made on the profile of the relieving tool of the type 3 worm hob. Firstly the type 3 worm thread surface, which is normal to the basic thread surface of the hob, is chosen as the helical cutting face of the type 3 worm hob. Secondly the calculation method for the profile of the relieving tool for this worm hob is obtained. Thirdly the calculation method for the deviation from the tangent on the profile of the relieving tool is clarified. Then, the experimental manufacture of a relieving tool is performed by applying these calculation methods to a numerical example of the type 3 worm hob. The theories in this analysis are verified by practical relief cutting of the type 3 worm hob with the relieving tool. The necessity and the effectiveness of these calculation methods are confirmed.
