New Top Land Computing Method for Spiral Bevel Gears
Abstract
In this study, we present two methods for determining the top land of bevel gears. One of them that can be found in the professional literature is based on the Tredgold's virtual cylindrical gear model and, corresponding to this, deals with a limited accuracy. The alternative method developed by us is based on a mathematical modelling of the manufacturing process and involves in the computing of the top land dimensions theoretically perfect surface models.
