Advanced Gear Manufacturing and Finishing offers detailed coverage of advanced manufacturing technologies used in the production of gears, including new methods such as spark erosion machining, abrasive water jet machining, additive layer manufacturing, laser shaping, and sustainable manufacturing of gears. The industry in this area is constantly producing new settings where gears must endure ever increasing stresses, strains, and temperatures. Advanced methods in manufacturing, finishing, and surface property enhancement have emerged in recent years to meet these challenges. This unique book takes a critical look at the state-of-the-art research into these new methods, and the latest improvements to classic technologies in both gear manufacturing and finishing. This book is essential reading for researchers and engineers working in the fields of powertrain manufacturing, gear technology, and advanced manufacturing technologies. - Describes the machining systems, main components, and working procedures with the help of diagrams and photos. - Demonstrates the mechanisms and capabilities of new methods. - Shows improvements to a range of gear manufacturing and finishing technologies. - Provides a critical review of recent research in a range of fields relevant to gear manufacturing technologies.
Compiled from the author's 40 years of research and, this detailed handbook provides "how-to" details of all mass finishing/loose abrasive finishing processes that experienced finishers will find as useful as the first-time user. It covers 16 basic mass finishing processes, including vibratory, centrifugal disc, magnetic abrasive, cryogenic, and chemical-assisted processes--offering data and charts based on thousands of measurements to make process selection easier. In addition to providing case histories and a host of practical tips, it also discusses mass finishing economics, edge requirements, surface requirements, side effects, the impact of burr size and part definition, media, and compounds. Whether you're a manufacturing engineer buying a machine for the first time, or a shop foreman, or an experienced user who is looking for ideas for more economical approaches; this is the perfect resource for you! Contains complete coverage of all processes, based on precision finishing requirements and filled with user data rather than sales information. Provides data that enables users to quickly assess the best approaches. Only book of its kind that deals with burrs and precision finishing. Offers coverage of magnetic finishing and cryogenic information not found in any other English language books. Includes an extensive bibliography of world literature on the topic.
