Starline TOP for sharpening large, heavy hobs

HARO Technologies Int. is an expert in the design and manufacture of sharpening since 1947. To meet market demand HARO Technologies Int. designed and developed through its long experience a range of dedicated machines including the newest “Starline” for sharpening hobs tools and gear cutting. Its high-tech equipment has enabled Siemens to offer specific programs for hobs straight or helical adjusted for the shape of the wheel, receiving data taking reduced to its simplest expression. The machine is equipped with a sensor that observes the longitudinal and angular positions of the cutter can be implemented quickly and accurately the sharpening operation.
The accuracy of the cutting tool depends entirely on his performance and regrinding. Today many users of cutting machines have made the leap into buying a grinder modern meets current standards of accuracy and quality. Reasons legitimized by the experiment showing that the return on investment is quick and profitable. Here is a list of improvements and gains generated by these new grinders Starline:

• Sharpening as AAA hob straight or helical
• Increased resistance of cutting edges
• A greater number of gears cut between two sharpening
• Less change of hobs on the gear hobbing machine and less downtime of production.
• A replacement set of hobs less frequent, lower tooling costs.
• Procedures for presetting integrated, reducing the setup time on the gear hobbing machine itself.
• A pre control confirming the quality grinder sharpening without dismantling, enabling immediate correction if necessary.
• A gain and continuity of quality cutting.

Results obtained in fields as diverse as automotive, shipbuilding, production of gearboxes, cement, prototype and repair, and the production of hobs, etc.………….
SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING to check automatically the diameter, tooth depth, true running, calculation of pitch and cutting length, and automatic positioning of the tooth. All these data are automatically stored.
HARO HOB inspection software after regrinding can be checked by the probe system for rake angle, lead face, cross face, indexing error and accumulated error with interpolation with axes X, Y and A.
