Advantages of carbide stick blades for bevel gears
Carbide stick blades are cutting tools specially designed for machining bevel gears. These blades are usually in the form of a bar and are mounted on a tool holder or milling cutter body to ensure that the bevel gear is ready for cutting work. In order to match the shape of the bevel gear teeth and to ensure accuracy when working on the gears, the Carbide stick blades are designed with specific leading and trailing angles and cutting edge geometries.
High hardness, wear resistance, high cutting speeds and good surface finish are all advantages of Carbide stick blades.
The use of carbide materials allows for longer cutting performance. For example, in the aerospace industry, where bevel gears are made from heat-treated alloys, carbide stick blades can withstand the abrasive nature of these materials and provide consistent cutting performance.
Carbide stick blades have higher cutting speeds compared to HSS inserts, which can significantly reduce bevel gear machining times. For example, carbide stick blades can increase cutting speeds by a factor of 2 - 3 compared to HSS inserts, depending on the specific machining conditions and gear material.
Good surface finish reduces noise and wear. In applications such as automotive differential bevel gears, the good surface finish provided by carbide stick blades helps to improve the overall performance and durability of the gear.
