In this paper, amanufacturingmethod of the pinionmember oflarge-sized skew bevel gears using amulti-axis control andmulti-tasking machine tool respecting an existing gear member isproposed. First, the tooth surface forms of skew bevel gears aremodeled. Next, the real tooth surfaces of the gear member aremeasured using a coordinate measuring machine and the deviationsbetween the real and theoretical tooth surface forms are formalizedusing polynomial equations. It is possible to analyze the toothcontact pattern of the skew bevel gears with respect to thedeviations of the real and theoretical tooth surface forms byexpressing the deviations as polynomial equations. Further, thedeviations of the tooth surface form of the gear member arereflected in the analysis of the tooth contact pattern andtransmission errors, and the tooth surface form of the pinionmember that has good performance mating with the existing gearmember is determined. Finally, the pinion member is manufactured byswarf cutting using a multi-axis control and multi-tasking machinetool. Afterward, the real tooth surfaces of the manufactured pinionmember are measured using a coordinatemeasuringmachine and thetooth surface form errors are detected. In addition, the toothcontact pattern of the manufactured pinion member and existing gearmember is compared with those of tooth contact analysis. Theresults show that there is good agreement.
