EWS introduces gear cutting driven head for gear hobbing on a driven tool lathest re-chucking

EWS has developed a driven head fixture that allows the cutter head to rotate steplessly around the shaft, eliminating the need for a costly b-axis on the machine tool and allowing the entire gear cutting process to be completed without re-chucking.
