Advanced Multi-Axis Machining of Helical Gears

Author Highlight
Thanks to Nguyễn Văn Ước for sharing an inside look at complex helical gear manufacturing in the automotive and transportation sector.

CAM Simulation and Real-World Machining
The shared video sequences showcase a multi-axis CNC milling center machining metal gear blanks. Using ENCY CAD/CAM software, the toolpaths for helical tooth cutting are visualized in real time, providing clear overlays of cutter engagement at every stage. These detailed simulations transition seamlessly to actual milling and turning setups, emphasizing practical application.

Toolpath Visualization and Process Complexity
As seen in the images and simulations, ENCY supports advanced mill-turn and rotary operations. Color-coded toolpaths illustrate each pass as the CNC machines sculpt precise, curved gear profiles, reflecting the high-quality requirements of automotive manufacturing.
