The Process of Gear Shaving (Back to Basics)
Gear shaving is a free-cutting gear finishing operation which removes small amounts of metal from the working surfaces of the gear teeth. Its purpose is to correct errors in index,
helical angle, tooth profile and eccentricity. The process can also improve tooth surface finish and eliminate, by crowned tooth forms, the danger of tooth end load concentrations
in service. Shaving provides for form modifications that reduce gear noise. These modifications can also increase
the gear's load carrying capacity, its factor of safety and its service life.
