Gear Machining

CNC gears is the process to obtain the specific structure and precision of gears by the general precision CNC machining method. Gears are the core transmission components of mechanical equipment. The quality will have a direct impact on the vibration, noise, and reliability of mechanical products, and sometimes becomes a key factor restricting the improvement on product levels. Therefore, it is very important to choose an excellent gear manufacturing supplier. LJZ gear cutting company focuses on providing high-precision gear manufacturing services for various industries.

    How are Gears Manufactured?

    Precision gear cutting manufacturing steps include forging, normalizing, turning, rolling, gear shaving, heat treatment, and grinding. The purpose of the normalizing process is to prepare for the final heat treatment to effectively reduce the deformation of the heat treatment.  


    Gears manufactured by  LJZ CNC machining involve precise and automated cutting processes. The key steps of gear machining include:


    Material Selection and Preparation: A suitable material, such as steel or aluminum, is chosen and cut into a gear blank.


    CNC Programming: A CAD model of the gear is created and converted into CNC programming code. This code guides the CNC machine's operations.


    Machining: The gear blank is fixed in a CNC machine, where various cutting tools shape the gear teeth. Common methods include milling and hobbing. The CNC machine ensures high precision and repeatability.


    Finishing: After the teeth are cut, the gear may undergo additional processes like grinding to achieve the desired surface finish and dimensional accuracy.


    Quality Control: The finished gears are inspected using tools like coordinate measuring machines (CMM) to ensure they meet specifications.


    LJZ CNC gear machining is favored for its precision, flexibility, and ability to produce complex gear geometries efficiently.

    Available Materials That We Work With: LJZ CNC Custom Gear Cutting

    For every precision-machined gear, including the most complex mass production, its materials must pass our most professional testing and inspection. The materials that we often work with in gear machining are: Aluminum alloy, Alloy steel, Copper, Stainless steel, POM, Nylon, PMMA, ABS, PEEK, and more.


    Workpiece materials using gear machining are divided into several main groups according to ISO standards, each group has unique machinability properties. Steel is the largest material group in the metal cutting range. Stainless steel is an alloy material with a chromium content of not less than 12%. Heat resistant premium alloys include many high alloy iron, nickel, cobalt and titanium based materials.
