In this paper, we developed an automated program for the modeling and manufacturing of three-dimensional roller gear cams. A computer program employing the theory of gearing and coordinate transformation is developed for synthesizing and animating cam mechanisms. A method using wire frame modeling and shading by triangular element is presented, and effectively used for modeling of example with reduced computation time. Then a module for generation NC program for a five-axis CMC machine to manufacture roller gear cam is established.

Fine grained superplastic Zn-22%Al alloy was extruded using a laser machined micro-die to produce a micro-gear shaft. Extrusion process was conducted under a constant pressure at constant temperatures ranging from 503 to 563K. Laser machining was capable to machine a micro-die with close tolerances and adequate surface quality. The extrusion rate increased with extrusion load under constant extrusion temperature. The rate reached a steady state and became constant after a certain period. There was a small instantaneous stroke on application of the load and then a very brief primary stage which preceded steady-state flow. The micro-extrusion process was proven to produce a micro-gear shaft successfully using a fine grained superplastic Zn-22%Al alloy.

Differential side bevel gears have been produced by machining process, but recently cold forging process for the bevel gear is under development in domestic industry. This study presents the possibility to form not only bevel gear but also spline gear at the same time using the experiment and numerical analysis. The preform shape is designed to form both bevel gear and spline gear simultaneously by the backward tracing scheme of the rigid-plastic finite element method(FEM). The experimental results confirm that the numerically-designed preform is satisfactory to form both bevel gear and spline gear. It is noted that the backward tracing scheme is helpful in designing preforms.

Gear is an important machine element to be used transmission in case short between axis. We drew gear using automatic design program to solve problem when it draw gear. We manufactured gears that it have different pressure angles using W-EDM. And we got a 2D profile of manufactured gear using reverse engineering. So we got to manufacturing error in comparison with CAD data and measured data. In result we could manufacture precise gear through improvement of manufacturing processes.

P/M enables the economical production of components for many kinds of gears. Functionally, the sub gear requires high tooth accuracy and bending fatigue strength. The whole tooth profile was sized after sintering to satisfy the gear tooth accuracy specification. The part was redesigned to reduce machining requirements. The required bending fatigue strength was achieved through appropriate material choice and induction of compressive residual stress by shotpeening after carburizing. The P/M sub gear replaced a forged steel gear, satisfied performance requirements, expanded the use of P/M applications and provided over 30% cost reduction.

Extrusion process in the bulk material for fabrication of miniature helical gears has problems such as a high forming load and short tool life because the cross-section is complex and asymmetry. To overcome these problems, in this study, miniature helical gears were fabricated by Zn-22Al powder hot extrusion. The included die angle for minimum extrusion load and improving die filling was determined by FE-simulation. The Zn-22Al spheroidal powder produced by gasatomization were compacted and sintered for extrusion experiment. The dimension of helical-gear is 0.3mm in module, 3.35mm in pitch diameter, $15^{\circ}$ in helix angle and the number of teeth is 12. All of the extrusion experiments were performed with internal helical gear die which was machined by precision electric discharge machining using the electrode. The experiment was conducted at $190^{\circ}C$ to $310^{\circ}C$ to obtain extrusive and mechanical properties. The extruded helical gears were analyzed through extrusion load, Vickers hardness and SEM images for each extrusion temperature. The powder hot extrusion process was successfully applied to fabricate a miniature helical gear.

This study is making a product for the development of one process worm wheel of making a shape for gear for worm wheel without hobbing manufacturing process. Because of removing a hobbing process, plastic worm wheel for increased productivity and equivalent quality is produced in the result. As the result, this product is selling to Hyundai Mobis, Mando, TRW, KOYO/NSK/Showa(Japan), Delphai(America). The core technology and different strategy are as follows. The technology protection for molding of worm whee is currently patent process "Molding process of helical gear(No. 10-2008-0105908). Further patent procedure for "molding system for positioning decision of inserting boss is currently prepared. As gear molding procedure in hobbing machine without gear machining procedure, most of all, core development technology which is making a gear tooth is main topic. So that, in case of currently developed worm wheel, because core and mold base are not developed in the first procedure, gear is machining in hobbing M/C as the second procedure. In the later, patent for mold base structure will be prepared in this study results.

The high speed of an engine balance box may cause significant additional gear noise. Gear accuracy is the most useful key to reduce gear noise, but the small tooth width and thin-walled anti-backlash gear introduce challenges to the manufacturing process. In order to reduce the gear noise caused by gear pitch error, this paper investigates the correlation between influencing factors and gear pitch error by analyzing the processing technology, tooling fixture, and equipment accuracy. By improving the process and optimizing the gear design, the gear machining accuracy was improved and the processing cost was saved.

Broaching is widely used for the machining of inner shaped slots in work-pieces. The broach tool is moved vertically (usually by hydraulic power) through the work-piece. Broaching occurs with the work-pieced fix while the broach tool traverses through material and shears it. To produce a T/F driven gear both an outside cutting and an inside cutting are needed. The outside cut determines the tooth profile and the inside cut determines the inner dimension. Broaching can cause problems with concentricity. In the current study, the characteristics of shearing along the cutting blade and the broaching of a T/F driven gear are considered.
