Abstract
For manufacturing bevel gears, special tool systems consisting of a cutterhead and carbide stick blades are used. Due to the complex relationship between the machine and process kinematics, however, an analytical analysis of the cutting process has been proven to be very difficult. For this reason, a manufacturing simulation based on planar penetration has been developed. In this paper, the algorithm is to be extended to generate processes for the first time. The concluding validation ensures that the simulated values match the actual cutting conditions. The result is a validated extension of the existing manufacturing simulation.
