Scudding®
internal & external gears
Highly modern new development based on the traditional gear skiving: Profilator
has further developed 100-year-old gear skiving to the SCUDDING® high performance gear cutting process with the help of innovative machining and the most modern tool technology.
SCUDDING® is a continual gear cutting process which makes both the production of external and internal gears as well as spur and helical gearing possible.
As another great advantage, the SCUDDING® technology allows the machining of internal or external gears/splines without the need of an undercut or groove. The end of the gear can be a defined / programmed ramp or radius.
“120,000 vs. 3,600 cuts
per minute”
Whereas with SCUDDING® , the material is machined with a milling cutter with 60 teeth and a speed of 2,000 rpm at 120,000 cuts per minute, with gear shaping and 1,800 double strokes, only 3,600 cuts are made per minute.
