BASIC ALGORTHM
Since the load on the tooth and its kinematic
parameters depend on the tooth position along the
mill axis, while the number of the tooth characterizes
its position relative to this axis, we need to clearly
establish the numbering of the hob teeth. The central
tooth (number 0) is such that its symmetry axis lies on
the interaxial perpendicular of the hob and blank
(Fig. 1)in the present case, the Y1 axis. The teeth on
the input section of the hob have negative numbers
(1, 2, ); those on the output section have positive
numbers (1, 2, ).
In the first stage, we specify the tooth profile in the
normal cross section, corresponding to the closed
halfline passing through the corners of the tooth pro
file. To specify the profile with the necessary modifica
tion, we may use not only the subprograms created to
construct the profiles of some basic hob modifications
but also the AutoCAD drawing facilities.
Then we calculate the spatial trajectory of the tooth
and obtain the tooth track in cutting by forcing the
specified halfline along the resulting curve. The tra
jectory is specified by a set of points, each of which is
obtained with motion from the preceding point. The
number of points on the curve, which determines the
precision of the trajectory, depends on the increment
in the angle of hob rotation. In cutting a spur gear, the
increments are given by the formulas
i = i n z0 /z,
S i = S o i n z0 /z180,
where i and i are increments in the rotary angles of
the blank and mill; nz0 is the number of turns of the
hob; Si is the supply increment; z is the number of gear
teeth; So is the supply per turn.
At this stage, we specify the dimensions of the cyl
inder (blank). The preparation stage is then complete.

Here Vi is the elementary volume of metal removed by
the section of profile in the given cross section; 0 is
the profile angle at the given point (Fig. 5).
On the basis of the foregoing, we write a form factor
Kf = f(V', l, Kin, Kco). Then, for points of the tooths
cutting perimeter, we obtain
h' = f ( K T, K in, K co, V', l ),
where h' is the modeled wear; l is the length of the con
tact arc at the profile point; V' = V/Vh is the relative
volume of metal cut by the given point of the tooth
profile; Vh is the volume of metal cut by the hob as a
whole.
