Predictive Modelling of P/M Gear Rolling 2006-01-0386
Transverse gear rolling has the potential to deliver both increased dimensional precision and performance in combination with the established processing methods for P/M gear manufacturing. In order to effectively design the rolling process, a constitutive understanding of both the kinematical boundary conditions and the densification behavior of different P/M materials is necessary. The successful application of a comprehensive process design strategy is illustrated along with highlights of several example products.
