OverviewVertical gear hobbing machines are CNC gear machining centres that use hobs and the generating method to produce cylindrical, helical, worm and synchronous gears. The vertical column + worktable layout provides high rigidity, low vibration and easy loading for large-diameter and heavy workpieces, making these machines suitable for batch and precision production in gear manufacturing.
Key features- Stable structure: vertical column and rotating table layout for high rigidity and reduced vibration, best suited to large-diameter and large-module gears.
- High machining accuracy: supports spur, helical, worm and synchronous gears with precise tooth profile and helix accuracy for mid-to-high-end applications.
- Large workpiece capacity: heavy-duty tables and high load-bearing clamping for disc, hub and large-diameter gears; convenient loading/unloading.
- High automation: CNC control with automatic indexing, automatic feeding and multi-axis linkage for consistent quality and production efficiency.
- Broad applications: used in reducers, construction machinery, wind power, machine tool components and other gear-dependent industries.
