    Can a Single Cutter tool cut X profile shifted gear?

    Cannot find answers to my dilemma anywhere: can I use a single cutter tool to cut a gear with an X profile shift? I believe a single cutter would shift the entire involute which is not what the X shift is about. I think in the case of the X shift, it is the Major and Minor that shift while the...

    Determining Gear Parameters

    Need help in determining spur gear parameters. I believe the manufacturer used correction P but that's over my head (I can analyze gears with correction P-0 only). Gears come from the valve train of a tiny engine used in a Try-Bilt leaf blower which I am converting to a model plane engine. So...

    Can gears with ZERO backlash work properly?

    I have an application that transmits large torque but requires ZERO backlash. During each gear revolution torque direction changes several times. This generates large shock loads and noise due to backlash. The gear set is internal-external gears. I intend to eliminate backlash to zero, but...

    Haw to Calculate Spline with profile shift X

    I need to use a 24/48 involute spline with 60 teeth, but need to get 65.0 mm OD (a bit larger than what you get with a standard 60T-24/48). To get the 65mm OD I need to use profile shift X - same technique as with a gear. Can anyone explain how to calculate the necessary X factor? For a gear it...
