1st Technical Seminar: Power Skiving

Rarely has a new manufacturing technology been as highly regarded as power skiving – a continuous generating gear manufacturing process with a wide machining range. As such, it competes with long-established technologies such as gear shaping or gear broaching in the production of internal gears or components with interfering contours. In particular, the high productivity of power skiving makes the process increasingly attractive for users. Due to the flying tool clamping without a counter-support, the process can also be integrated into the turning operation on modern universal turning and turn-mill machines for the production of internal or external gears. However, the complex interaction of process parameters, strongly varying angular relationships, and the resulting high cutting edge stress place high demands on process and tool design.

Within the framework of the technical seminar, experienced speakers from industry and research will report on the special features and application possibilities of power skiving. The technical seminar offers the opportunity to learn about current developments in tool and process development and provides insights into application fields of tomorrow. It brings together experienced manufacturers and users and enables a practice-oriented discussion of current requirements and possibilities from the perspective of the process, the tools, and the application technology.
