Simulation and Experimental Study on a New Successive Forming Process for Large Modulus Gears

Abstract A successive tooth forming process for producing large modulus spur gears (m>2.5 mm) is firstly proposed in this paper to break the restrictions of large forming load and large equipment structure of traditional plastic forming. It contains the preforming stage and the finishing stage. I...
