Still having doubts about implementing Power Skiving?
Power Skiving has revolutionized gear manufacturing, and the process can give tremendous gains in productivity and total cost reduction – provided that the right conditions are set. However, users quite often report problems like inferior process security, early wear and as a total result not experiencing the gains they have expected. The reason for this is often limited transparency of what is really happening at the cutting-edge level.
If unfavorable cutting conditions are set, performance will be much more strongly affected than in most other cutting applications, due to the need for a perfect match between the skiving cutter, the gear to be produced, and the machine tool.
With Toolyzer, an optimized process can be defined, fast and reliable.
Key parameters such as feed rates and tool orientation like cross-axis angle can be set for each stroke individually to ensure best possible performance in terms of productivity, tool life and surface condition.
The virtual process can then easily be transferred to the manufacturing environment – without conducting costly and unreliable trial & error activities.
In the recent development, Toolyzer includes an automatic feed-rate optimization function which makes it even easier to maximize the result.
Numerous users worldwide have reported from boosting their performance by using Toolyzer. Tetralytix has provided the means to drastically improve the success rate when implementing Power Skiving.
