Abstract:In this paper,the variation pattern of the contact point on cutter tooth and gear tooth is analyzed during gear shaving process. According to the shaving force measured by dynamometer, the deformation of cutter tooth and gear tooth at the contact point is calculated by appying the three dimension finite element method. The deformation curve of cutter tooth and gear tooth are obtained by analying deformation in shaving domain. It is the basis of studying relation between shaved amount and deformation.
