Koepfer software for non-circular gears available from EMAG

Emag subsidiary Koepfer has released software that makes it possible to produce non-circular gears on standard hobbing machines, a development that eliminates the need to use EDMs, gear shapers or sintering machines.

The solution can be used on all standard 160 and 300 machines types with the current control system – only the software needs to be modified. Users simply enter the mathematical data of the required contour into the software. The machine is then fully prepared for non-circular machining.
