On the Peculiarities of the Circular Cutter Geometry Applied for Cutting the Wheels of Novikov’s Gearings

The authors determine the tolerance ranges of the shift of the basic rack tooth profile of the tool having the form of a gear wheel (shaver, honing wheel, knurling tool) used for cutting the gear wheels of cylindrical Novikov’s gearings. The tolerance range was obtained proceeding from the condition of the edges of regression formation, width of the topland, contact ratio and permissible width of the toothed rim of the tool. The obtained recommendations were used and can be used for designing instruments for machining the Novikov’s gearing wheels.
