Cutter Build Inspection Machine
September 1, 2016
Gleason Corporation has introduced the 500CB . "The 500CB delivers more accurate and highly automated build, truing and inspection of all types of stick-blade bevel gear cutters," said a company spokesperson.
The 500CB features automated closed-loop blade positioning, creating a highly accurate and repeatable build quality. "An accurately built cutter head is a critical factor in achieving precise gear quality and maximum tool life," said the spokesperson. In addition, the 500CB also automatically controls the tightening of the blade clamp screws, applying the correct torque. These features reduce operator involvement in building accurate and repeatable cutter heads, freeing personnel to perform other functions.
This machine has an intuitive operator interface, including wizard functions to guide an operator through the build process. The software has smart features, making recommendations to the operator while continually displaying key data as the head is being built.
