The integration of INTEGREX multi-tasking with gear cutting and measurement

Perform a variety of High-accuracy gear machining

Conversational programming of high accuracy gear cutting and gear measurement

Operation flow

Programs are easily made in a short period of time by just inputting gear data

Protection of workpiece, tool and spindle

Escape button There is an escape button on the operation panel to remove the tool from the workpiece while maintaining synchronized rotation. By using this button during an emergency, the cutter, workpiece and milling spindle are protected. The tool and the workpiece motion can be stopped safely even when errors occur during machining.

Hob shift This function shifts the contact point of the hob and workpiece to extend tool life.

Gear teeth probing by touch sensor

When using a new cutter or regrind tool, a gear tooth can be probed by a touch sensor to determine the required amount of compensation. This same process can also be used to determine the in-phase positioning of other machined features, such as deburring using a ball endmill or locating a bore on a workpiece face.

Note : Compensation is manually entered for remachining

Gear profile and gear lead measurement (Option)

The gear profile and gear lead can be inspected on the machine by using an optional scanning probe. Measurement results are simply shown on the CNC display.

Higher accuracy

For maximum gear accuracy, center of workpiece rotation and center of pitch circle must be same. If gear blank is turned on lathe and then moved to gear hobbing machine, there will be some displacement between the centers. By INTEGREX DONE IN ONE^® processing, the centers of the workpiece rotation and the pitch circle center are the same, providing the maximum gear accuracy.

Process integration

Gear processing that used to be performed by multiple machines is now completed by just one machine.
This revolutionary process integration reduces production lead time.
