. Thus, a rotary table to be interfaced with the three-axis milling machine is required. Form cutting or form milling is used in our tests. The tool is fed radially toward the center of the gear blank to the desired tooth depth, then across the tooth face, while the rotary table rotates the workpiece around its center to obtain the required tooth width. When one tooth space has pleted, the tool is withdrawn, the gear blank is indexed using a dividing head, and the next tooth space is cut. Basically, this method is a simple and flexible method of machining SBGs. The equipment and cutters required are relatively simple, and standard three-C milling machine is used. However, considerable care is required on the part of tool feed which should be a small value in each step to prevent any spoil.
