Gear hobs

Gear hobs

Fully automated gear hobs are used to produce gears. Since the demand for gears continues to grow each year, improvements in the production of gear hobs that will turn out more gears per hour also continues to be enhanced. The production of gear hobs is almost as large an industry as the the collective industries that use them.

Many manufacturing firms that maintain museums of how products were produced in times past will have examples of manual gear hobs that helped to produce gears prior to the gears of the 19th century and earlier. Along with these completely manual gear hobs will be samples of some of the first semi-automated gear hobs, and finally examples of more recent technology that demonstrates the fully automated process that modern gear hobs use to produce gears today. A few producers of gear hobs also have interesting literature on the history of gear hobs, including details about how modern gear hobs can produce thousands of gears in a single hour.

Gear Hobs can be of various types
* Chain sprocket Hobs
* Worm wheel hobs
* Spline hobs
* Chamfer hobs
* Spur and helical gear hobs
* Straight side spline hobs
* Involute spline hobs
* Serration Hobs
* Semitopping Gear Hobs
