Gear Milling Technology

Sandvik Coromant has introduced the InvoMilling™ system for the manufacture of gears and splines on universal 5-axis machining centers.

This system comprises software and dedicated milling cutters combined with support from the company’s gear application team. With the CAM software, InvoMilling 1.0, the CNC program is generated to produce different gear profiles with a limited range of standard-stocked precision tools.

The software includes tool path generation and simulation functionality. It was codeveloped with Euklid, a company with experience in gear cutting and CAD/CAM.

Combined with the dedicated CoroMill® 161 and CoroMill® 162 cutters, the new software is suitable for creating a variety of gears and splines.
