Abstract

A continuous semi-completing method for machining the tooth flanks of a face coupling workpiece using a gear cutting tool having multiple blades. Exemplary methods include a) setting of a first machine setting, wherein an inner cutting edge of an mth blade of the gear cutting tool machines a convex flank of a first tooth gap, and an inner cutting edge of a further blade machines a convex flank of a following tooth gap, until all convex flanks of all tooth gaps are finish machined, and b) setting of a second machine setting wherein an outer cutting edge of an nth blade of the gear cutting tool machines a concave flank of a tooth gap, and an outer cutting edge of a further blade machines a concave flank of a following tooth gap, until all concave flanks of all tooth gaps are finish machined.
