Abstract: An abnormality detection apparatus for working tools configured to be used in a machining process performed by a machine tool, the abnormality detection apparatus includes a storage portion which previously stores correlations between features of a plurality of operating portions relation to the machining process performed by the machine tool, and a tool condition of each of a plurality of working tool types, and a tool condition determining portion which determines the tool condition of the working tools based on the correlations.

Abstract: To provide a gear machining apparatus capable of correcting a tooth trace error without using a special tool when a hob cutter is cantilever-supported. A gear machining apparatus includes a hob cutter machining a tooth profile on a workpiece, a tool spindle device rotatably cantilever-supporting the hob cutter, a workpiece spindle device rotatably supporting the workpiece, a driving device moving the tool spindle device and the workpiece spindle device relatively to each other, a measuring device measuring the value corresponding to a bending amount of the hob cutter or a rotation synchronization shift of the workpiece spindle device with respect to the tool spindle device and a correction processing unit correcting a cutting amount of the hob cutter T or the rotation synchronization shift of the workpiece spindle device with respect to the tool spindle device based on the value measured by the measuring device.

Abstract: A gear machining apparatus performs cutting work for a workpiece and generates a gear by performing a feed operation of a gear cutter relative to the workpiece along a direction of an axis of the workpiece while synchronously rotating the gear cutter and the workpiece in a state in which an axis of the gear cutter is inclined with respect to a line parallel to the axis of the workpiece. The gear machining apparatus continuously performs cutting work for a first tooth flank and cutting work for a second tooth flank during a single feed operation, and changes a correction angle between the cutting work for the first tooth flank and the cutting work for the second tooth flank.

Abstract: A gear machining apparatus and a gear machining method are provided. The gear machining apparatus performs cutting work for a workpiece and generates a gear by performing a feed operation of a gear cutter relative to the workpiece along a direction of an axis of the workpiece while synchronously rotating the gear cutter and the workpiece in a state in which an axis of the gear cutter is inclined with respect to a line parallel to the axis of the workpiece. The gear machining apparatus sets a correction angle to a first angle when cutting work for a second tooth flank is started after cutting work for a first tooth flank is finished, and moves the gear cutter from a first finish position to a second start position while rotating the workpiece and the gear cutter.
