The invention relates to a method for machining toothing systems, in which, for a series of workpieces with an identical target geometry, a toothing system is produced or machined on a respective workpiece in a first machining operation and, in a second machining operation, with a machining tool, additional tooth shaping of the toothing system resulting from the first machining - in particular, chamfering of a tooth end edge of this toothing system - is carried out in a relative positioning with respect thereto, wherein a controller of the second machining operation automatically detects, at least in part, a change in a workpiece property, which is in particular independent of the first machining operation, and/or in a setting of the first machining operation - in particular, with respect to a respectively predetermined reference - and carries out the relative positioning as a function of the detected change.

A toothed workpiece chamfering device having a chamfering head (2) which includes a first axis of rotation (B) for rotation of a first chamfering tool (6) and a second axis of rotation (T) for rotation of a second chamfering tool (8) wherein the first and second chamfering tools are of different types and their respective material removal methods are also different from one another. Preferably, the first and second axes of rotation are not coincident with one another and in a more preferred arrangement, the first tool axis and the second tool axis are arranged perpendicularly to one another.

A method for producing a bevel on the edge defined by an end face of a gearwheel and the flanks of the teeth of the gearwheel adjacent thereto, with a cutting tool which at least includes a cutting edge. The invention further relates to a cutting tool for performing the method and a cutting insert, a device for performing the method and a control program. It is essential that the cutting edge processes only one processing section of the edge during each revolution of the cutting tool.

A gear machining apparatus includes: a hob cutter; at least one processor; and at least one memory having instructions. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the gear machining apparatus to perform operations including: performing first chamfering on a first axial end of a gear profile by relatively moving the hob cutter with respect to a workpiece in radial and axial directions of the workpiece; performing, subsequent to the first chamfering, gear profile machining by relatively moving the hob cutter with respect to the workpiece in the axial direction; and performing, subsequent to the gear profile machining, second chamfering on a second axial end of the gear profile by relatively moving the hob cutter with respect to the workpiece in the radial and axial directions.

A method of manufacturing a sintered gear includes preparing a green compact having two gear-shaped end surfaces, one on each of two sides in an axial direction of the green compact, and having a plurality of teeth on an outer peripheral surface formed between the two end surfaces; chamfering an edge of the teeth by a brush; and sintering the green compact. The brush is a wheel-type brush including a disk-shaped wheel and a bristle member radially protruding from an outer periphery of the wheel. The chamfering includes disposing the brush with respect to the green compact such that the axial direction of the green compact and an axial direction of the wheel intersect with each other; bringing a tip of the bristle member into contact with a tooth bottom edge; and relatively moving the brush in a circumferential direction of the green compact while rotating the brush.
