Much attention has been paid to face hobbing in the last decade.The CNC technology made a quantum step in this period which wasbeneficial especially for the continuous bevel gear cuttingprocess. Paraiiel to the CNC technology a new method of facehobbing was subsequently developed and is introduced today as thedifferent and new way of face bobbing. The basis is a new geartheoreticai approach to design the blank geometry, the ease off andthe tooth contact. The tools are different in design than reguiarCutting blades an enable a high economical procedure of roughingand finishing in one chucking. The process kinematic was completelyredesigned, benefitting from the h e form concept of today’scutting machines. All the aspects of precision, flexibiiity andeconomy made the new face hobbing also popular for the gearboxmanufacturer and jobber. The paper explains the theoretidbackground and the important tool and process details.
