18、VENTIONAL FORMATE SETUPFORMATE FLARED CUP SETUPNew FreedomsThree angular and three linear motions define the relativemotions that can exist between any two bodies, in this casebetween the flared cup tool and the work gear. One of theangular freedoms is used to sweep out the tooth surfaces.Therefore,

19、 effectively only two angular freedoms are available forcontact pattern control.At any instant in sweeping out the tooth surfaces the CNCgenerator has the capability to change the relative orientationbetween the contact line and the gear tooth.

20、 number of reference systems. !For this case all of the motions are defined based on the L_. :-_x- Iinstantaneous radial plane; that is the plane containing the / “_-_,_conventional tool axis and the radial line to the mid-height point iaealwheelonthecontactline. _-.jThe freedoms are defined as foll
