The invention relates to a method for machining a toothing of a workpiece held in a clamping, in which method a toothing tool that rotates about its rotational axis and comprises cutting edges is brought into in particular rolling chip-removing machining engagement with the toothing that in particular rotates about its rotational axis, in order to produce a predetermined tooth flank end geometry in one or more machining passes, wherein during the machining pass which produces the tooth flank end geometry, monitoring responsive to the event of a removed chip being pressed into a machined tooth flank of the toothing by means of the in particular rolling machining process is carried out and, if the monitoring responds, an additional toothing machining process that removes the material protrusion on top of the tooth flank end geometry formed by the chip that was pressed in during the event which occurred is implemented in particular automatically, which process is carried out in particular in the same clamping of the workpiece and in particular by means of the toothing tool itself.

A method for producing gears, wherein in a first step a set of teeth is formed by means of a skiving wheel rotationally driven by a tool spindle in a workpiece gear rotationally driven synchronously thereto by a workpiece spindle, wherein the workpiece spindle and the tool spindle are at an axis intersection angle to each other and the advancement occurs in the tooth-flank extension direction, and wherein in a second step at least some teeth of the set of teeth are machined by means of a tooth-machining tool. A combined tool is used, in the case of which the toothmachining tool and the skiving wheel are fixedly connected to each other. Between the two steps, the combined tool remains connected to the tool spindle and the workpiece gear remains connected to the workpiece spindle. Between the two steps, merely the relative position of the tool spindle in relation to the workpiece spindle and the rotational speed ratio of the two spindles are changed.

A power skiving tool, having a shank extending along a longitudinal axis of the tool and a cutting head arranged at a front end of the shank. The cutting head comprises a plurality of circumferentially arranged teeth, wherein each of these teeth comprises a planar rake face at a front end of the cutting head that faces away from the shank, wherein the rake face is inclined at an angle other than 90 with respect to the longitudinal axis. A transition face is in each case arranged between the rake faces of two adjacent teeth. The transition face is arranged at the front end of the cutting head and adjoins the rake faces of the two adjacent teeth. Surface normals in all points of the transition face form an angle greater than 0 with the rake faces of the two adjacent teeth.

A multi-component gear cutting tool that is rotatable about an axis of rotation. The gear cutting tool includes a tool body extending axially lengthwise between a first end and a second end with the tool body being made of a first material. The gear cutting tool further includes a cutting tip attached to the tool body at one of the first end and the second end. The cutting tip includes an outer axial-facing cutting end with the cutting end having a plurality of cutting faces. The cutting tip is made of a second material different than the first material and the cutting tip is attached to the tool body via brazing.

A method for producing gears, wherein in a first step a set of teeth is formed by means of a skiving wheel rotationally driven by a tool spindle in a workpiece gear rotationally driven synchronously thereto by a workpiece spindle, wherein the workpiece spindle and the tool spindle are at an axis intersection angle to each other and the advancement occurs in the tooth-flank extension direction, and wherein in a second step at least some teeth of the set of teeth are machined by means of a tooth-machining tool. A combined tool is used, in the case of which the toothmachining tool and the skiving wheel are fixedly connected to each other. Between the two steps, the combined tool remains connected to the tool spindle and the workpiece gear remains connected to the workpiece spindle. Between the two steps, merely the relative position of the tool spindle in relation to the workpiece spindle and the rotational speed ratio of the two spindles are changed.

A method for machining toothed and hardened work wheels, includes: mounting a work wheel that is hardened and pre-toothed with an allowance onto a workpiece spindle; removing at least 50% of the allowance by means of gear skiving with a skiving wheel that is rotatably driven by a tool spindle; precision-machining the work wheel in unchanged tension by means of a honing wheel. The forward movement occurs during gear skiving in the extension direction of the toothing. The delivery of the workpiece that is moved in an oscillating manner in the extension direction of the toothing occurs during honing in the radial direction. The skiving wheel and the honing wheel are driven by a common tool spindle. A device for carrying out the method includes a workpiece spindle, which is driven to rotate, and a tool spindle, which carries a combination tool having a skiving wheel and a honing wheel.
