The Gleason Power Skiving Approach
Productivity and cost-per-piece benefits make Gleason’s Power Skiving Process a viable alternative to gear shaping and in many cases to other soft-machining processes, such as hobbing or broaching.
Precise and Flexible
Gear qualities created by Power Skiving are substantial and superior to other soft machining methods while modifications to profile and lead are easily applied.
Tool Knowledge
Technology-based tool design ensures a reliable production through the life cycle of the tool. We also provide the required resharpening and coating services.
Process Simulation Enables Predictability and Reliability
Our unique technology software helps generate workpieces in accordance with your specifications - One of the reasons our specialists know the results before even seeing the first chips.
Modular Workholding
Workholding for Power Skiving applications is designed specifically for the requirements of this particular process. The modular workholding system features quick-change elements for different workpiece diameters.
Simple Process Control
Process control is simple and intuitive – employing the Gleason Power Skiving Dialog Software.
Hard Power Skiving
Gleason Power Skiving Machines employ both, Soft and Hard Power Skiving processes. Hard Power Skiving can replace other hard finishing processes with comparable quality - at a fraction of the cost.
Integrated Deburring
Gleason Power Skiving integrates the deburring process into the cutting process, reducing burrs to a minimum.
Integrated Resharpening for Constant Quality and Reduced Tool Cost
Cutter resharpening in the machine eliminates idle times for cutter change, especially beneficial for large batches. Benefit from constant quality results, reduced tool cost, inventory and logistics.
Systems
Gleason’s Power Skiving approach is highly successful for a reason: we think in systems.
