The invention relates to a method for producing or machining, by cutting, an identical set of teeth on each of a plurality of workpieces, in particular at least 4 workpieces, of a workpiece batch on one or more gear-cutting machines (100) having a gear-cutting tool (S), which has a set of teeth having rake faces (5) and having an axis of rotation (B1), in rolling machining engagement, in which method, in the event that a deviation of a set of teeth from the tooth profile sought for said set of teeth is detected or expected, a countermeasure that counteracts said deviation is determined and the production/machining of additional workpieces of said workpiece batch is continued using the countermeasure, the countermeasure being, at least in part, a change in the position of the rake faces relative to the axis of rotation of the tool, which change is brought about by means of grinding performed on the gear-cutting machine or at a grinding machine (140) that belongs to the machine group of the gear-cutting machine.

A power skiving tool comprising a shank that extends along a longitudinal axis of the tool, and a cutting head that is arranged at an end face of the shank. The cutting head comprises a plurality of circumferentially arranged teeth, wherein, when viewed in a cross-section orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, each of the teeth comprises a convexly rounded contour, which at a first end transitions either directly or via a first concave transition contour into the convexly rounded contour of a first adjacent tooth of the plurality of teeth and at a second end opposite the first end transitions either directly or via a second concave transition contour into the convexly rounded contour of a second adjacent tooth of the plurality of teeth. A width of each tooth of the plurality of teeth, measured in the cross-section as a distance between the first end and the second end, is greater than a height of the respective tooth, measured in the cross-section orthogonal to the width and centrally between the first end and the second end.

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.

Provided is a cutter for skiving that includes cutting teeth that are disposed side by side in a longitudinal direction of tooth grooves and have tooth heights set so as to increase from a downstream side toward an upstream side in a cutting direction, and cutting teeth that are disposed side by side in a longitudinal direction of cutting edge grooves and have tooth heights set so as to incrementally increase from a downstream side toward an upstream side in a rotational direction for each number M of tooth trace patterns (where M is the smallest natural number of at least 2) derived by Equation (1) below. St:Sc=M:N (1), where St is a number of the tooth grooves, Sc is a number of the cutting edge grooves, and N is a number of patterns (where N is the smallest natural number) on a cutting face.

Described and shown is a method for producing tooth flank modifications, in particular twists, on tooth flanks of at least one workpiece toothing of at least one workpiece, in particular gear wheel. In order that the production of tooth flank modifications on workpiece toothings of workpieces can be carried out more economically, it is provided that the production of the tooth flank modifications is carried out by skiving by means of a skiving tool, that the workpiece is driven in a rotating manner about a workpiece rotation axis and the skiving tool is driven in a rotating manner about a tool rotation axis arranged at an axis cross angle obliquely, in particular skew, to the workpiece rotation axis, in that the skiving tool, in particular rotating about the tool rotation axis , is brought into chipping engagement with the workpiece, in particular rotating about the workpiece rotation axis, in that the skiving tool being in chipping engagement with the workpiece and rotating about the tool rotation axis is moved relative to the workpiece rotating about the workpiece rotation axis along a longitudinal axis at least substantially parallel to the workpiece rotation axis or the tool rotation axis, and in that, in order to produce the tooth flank modifications, the skiving tool moving along the longitudinal axis is moved relative to the workpiece along at least one transverse axis at least substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

A skiving tool comprising a cutter head (2) having a plurality of cutter blade mounting and positioning slots (8) arranged spaced, preferably equidistant, about the periphery (7) of the cutter head with the blade slots, and hence the cutting blades (4), preferably oriented perpendicular to the axis of rotation (A) of the cutter head. Alternatively, the blade slots may be inclined from the perpendicular orientation by less than 50 degrees, preferably less than 20 degrees, thereby forming a conical shaped cutter. Additionally, the blade slots may be positioned to extend radially from the cutter head axis whereby the longitudinal axis of a cutter blade will intersect the cutter head axis, or the blade slots may be radially offset from the cutter head axis. The blade slots may have any cross-sectional shape such as square, rectangular or those types having generally V-shaped seating surfaces (10) comprising a pair of angled mounting surfaces (12, 14) each less than 90 degrees. In contrast to known cutting blade configurations, the cutting blade (4) of the present invention has its cutting face (16) formed in a surface of the cutting blade that is located opposite to the seating surface or V-shaped seating surfaces (13, 15) of the cutting blade.
