A machine tool includes a workpiece holder, a tool holder holding working tools that includes a hob cutter used in a rough machining and a skiving cutter used in a finish machining, a tool magazine, a tool replacing device replacing one of the working tools mounted on the tool holder with the other of working tools housed in the tool magazine, a rough machining controlling section performing the rough machining on the workpiece, a tool measuring device measuring a position of a blade in a rotation direction of the skiving cutter, an angle correcting section correcting a rotation angle of the skiving cutter based on a result measured by the tool measuring device, and placing a tooth space formed in the workpiece and an edge tip of the blade in a position corresponding to each other, and a finish machining controlling section by which workpiece is finish machined.

A gear machining method includes: roughing a workpiece while causing a cylindrical hob cutter to rotate in synchronization with a rotation of the workpiece such that a cutting allowance remains; and finishing by cutting off the cutting allowance remaining on the workpiece on which the roughing has been performed during the roughing to form a desired gear shape by feeding a skiving cutter relatively to the workpiece in the rotation axis direction of the workpiece while causing the skiving cutter to rotate in synchronization with the rotation of the workpiece.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for chamfering at least one edge of the gearing at the front side of a workpiece having internal gearing comprising at least one rotatably supported workpiece holder for holding the workpiece and comprising at least one rotatably supported tool holder for holding at least one chamfer hob, possibly a chamfer cut hob, wherein the tool holder is arranged and/or arrangeable next to a workpiece held in the workpiece holder and a chamfer hob held in the tool holder is arrangeable by means of a tool arbor in the region of the center opening of the workpiece formed by the internal gearing to be brought into engagement with an edge of the internal gearing on the upper side and/or on the lower side of the workpiece.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for chamfering at least one edge of the gearing at the front side of a workpiece having internal gearing comprising at least one rotatably supported workpiece holder for holding the workpiece and comprising at least one rotatably supported tool holder for holding a chamfer hob, possibly a chamfer cut hob, wherein the tool holder is arranged at an internal hob arm whose free end can be traveled by a machine axis of the apparatus at least partly into the center opening formed by the internal gearing of the workpiece.

The invention relates to a method for creating or machining gears on workpieces (W1, W2), in which a rolling first machining engagement between a machining tool (WF; WS) that is driven about its rotation axis (B) and a first workpiece that is rotatable about the rotation axis (C1) of a first workpiece-side spindle (11) is realized at a first location on a gear-cutting machine (100; 200) by means of a tool-side spindle drive motor (22), and in which a second machining engagement is realized at a second workpiece, different from the first workpiece, that is rotatable about the rotation axis of a second workpiece-side spindle (12) that is different from the first workpiece-side spindle, wherein the machining tool can execute, relative to the first workpiece-side spindle, a movement, serving as an axial infeed movement in the first machining engagement, along a tool-side machine axis (Z) that has a direction component in the direction of the first workpiece-side spindle axis and in particular extends parallel thereto, wherein, after the first machining engagement, a tool-side positioning movement that takes place along this tool-side machine axis and allows the second machining engagement is carried out, wherein the second machining engagement is a machining engagement that is identical to the first machining engagement in terms of type of machining, is effected using the same tool-side spindle drive motor as in the first machining, and is carried out in the gear-cutting machine at a second point that is different from the first point.

The present disclosure relates to a method for the gear manufacturing machining of a workpiece in which a hobbing machining of the workpiece takes place to generate a gearing geometry of the workpiece, wherein the workpiece is gear manufacturing machined by gear skiving in addition to the hobbing machining.

The invention concerns a method to generate and/or machine gear teeth on a workpiece, wherein the workpiece is subjected to a movement from a first location where the workpiece, while being held by a clamping device connected to a workpiece spindle, is brought into machining engagement with a first tool, to a second location where the work piece, while remaining in its clamped condition, is brought into machining engagement with a second tool, wherein prior to performing the movement, the connection between the clamping device and the workpiece spindle is released, and after the movement, the clamping device is connected to another workpiece spindle for the machining engagement with the second tool.

The invention relates to a chamfering tool (4) for chamfering workpiece toothings (22), comprising a helical toothing having, for each flight, a plurality of teeth (5) with a geometrically defined cutting edge and having a tooth profile (8, 9; 8, 9) which is designed for single-flank machining in rolling machining engagement with the workpiece toothing and asymmetrical as viewed in the axial section of the tool. The invention further relates to a chamfering system (100), to a gear-cutting machine, and to a method for producing a chamfer on the tooth edges of a tooth flank side of a workpiece toothing.
