What is gear milling?

21 Aug 2024

Gear milling is a process that cuts one tooth slot at a time. Gear milling can be easily applied on machining centers, multi-task machines and turning centers, making the 

entire part in a single clamping. By using gear milling technology, splines that are usually machined on a hobbing machine or outsourced can be machined in-house using 

existing machines in a shop. And gear milling does not require a huge initial investment. Benefits of gear milling


Spline milling in machining centers, multi-task machines and turning centers


Low investment costs


Machine splines in existing machines without investing in hobbing machines


Less time and cost in logistics


No need to transfer parts between different machines or shops


No need to regrind and recoat high-speed steel (HSS) tools


High cutting speeds


Capable of cutting difficult materials


Dry machining reduces setup time and coolant costs, making the process more economical and easier on the operator


Highly economical solution for small to medium batch production


When to use gear milling
