runs. “This would be useful for building prototype parts and aftermarket applications, as well as off-road equipment,” said Finn. “We successfully did that with crankshaft prototypes many years ago and the same mind set could be made towards gearcutting.” For its skiving process development,


Mazak offers its Integrex Series Multi- Tasking machines, according to Finn. “Many machines can cut gears, de- pending on the gear type, but our most popular models are the Integrex series of machines, ranging from the Integrex 100, 200, 300, 400, and e420,” he remarked. “These cut gears and splines from 1 to 12" [25.4–304.8 mm] in diameter.” Mazak is currently developing cutting


processes for power skived gears and splines of all sizes and types, both OD and ID in either straight and angled teeth patterns, said Finn. “These machines allow for easy part and tool changeover with the toolchanger the tilting B-axis milling spindle to accommodate different cross-axis angles,” he said. He noted that fl exibility is the key advantage of a multitasking machine. The same mul-
