How to Process CNC Gears: A Comprehensive Guide by EMAR

As a leading CNC Machining service provider, EMAR specializes in delivering precision-engineered components, including CNC gears. This article explores the step-by-step process of gear manufacturing, addressing key challenges and showcasing our technical expertise.

Understanding CNC Gear Machining

CNC gear processing involves subtractive manufacturing techniques to create high-precision gear teeth profiles. Unlike traditional methods, CNC machining offers superior accuracy (up to ±.005mm) and repeatability, making it ideal for aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications.

Key Steps in CNC Gear Manufacturing

1. Material Selection: We use certified aluminum alloys, stainless steel, or engineering plastics based on application requirements.

2. CAD Modeling: Our engineers create 3D models with exact tooth geometry using advanced software.

3. CNC Milling/Turning: Multi-axis machines cut gear teeth with specialized cutting tools.

4. Heat Treatment: Optional hardening processes enhance durability.

5. Quality Inspection: Gear tooth profiles are verified using CMM and optical comparators.
