Custom Gear Production Case Study [Gears for Position Detection Devices]

Significantly improved accuracy as a sensor!

This is a sensor ring gear used for position detection of the rotating shaft in machine tools. The indexing accuracy is of utmost importance for the gear that detects the indexing position of the spindle. If the indexing accuracy is poor, it will affect the machine's precision during indexing and consequently impact the accuracy of the processed workpiece. To improve accuracy, our company has applied the high-precision gear processing technology cultivated through worm machining, enabling us to achieve precision that cannot be addressed by conventional gear cutting processes. Based on our long-standing expertise in sensor processing, we are able to propose material changes and enhance the precision of blanks, thereby stabilizing the processing. Additionally, by improving the precision of the tools, we optimize the processing accuracy of the gears and achieve high precision. The impact of our high-precision hob machines is significant, allowing us to perform high-precision finishing processes that are difficult for other companies to replicate. Although the gears are challenging due to the need to ensure precision in cutting and finishing processes, we have significantly improved the accuracy as a sensor, enabling us to meet our customers' development needs.
