Features

The YW5120 gear shaping machine is an eight-axis, five-linkage CNC gear shaper with a vertical layout where the column moves radially along the bed and the tool holder swings to accommodate the cutting movement. The eight axes are: radial feed movement X axis, tool circular movement C1 axis, workpiece circular movement C2 axis, crank rotation movement A axis, relieving cam movement B1 axis, worktable swing B2 axis, vertical movement of the tool holder slide Z axis, and stroke length adjustment Y axis. During gear shaping, the X, C1, C2, A, and B1 axes achieve five-axis linkage.

This machine is equipped with the Siemens 840DSL CNC system. It has the following features:

• The CNC gear shaper features an electronic helical guide function, allowing for the cutting of helical gears without the need for a special helical guide rail.
• It includes a tool holder slide lifting function, making it particularly suitable for shaping double gears with the same module but different tooth counts in a single clamping.
• The machine is designed with a CNC swing worktable, enabling the processing of not only small taper gears but also special tooth profiles.
• High production efficiency: The machine’s tool holder structure uses hydrostatic guides and hydrostatic bearings, meeting the needs for high-speed strokes with a maximum stroke speed of 2500 strokes per minute.
• High rigidity and thermal stability: The bed is made of high-density gray cast iron with a double-wall structure, providing excellent thermal stability and a stable foundation structure.
