Machine concept

Is performance-related gear cutting possible on your machine? As nowadays the need to be economical is more important than ever, modern machines are required.

The Liebherr LC series ensures reliable machining with the required torques and cutting forces. This allows us to reinforce the capability of modern CNC gear hobbing machines.

The machine concept fulfills quality requirements such as accuracy, stability and temperature resistance. Stable processes are realized during pre- and finish cutting.

Is dry gear hobbing for large modules (m>10) possible? Yes, as you can see in the picture on the left.

Flexible layouts possible
Chip conveyor can be retracted if required (shaft machining)
Temperature stable, as there is no direct connection between machine table, machine bed and counter column. The connection is made via the foundation.
Welded machine bed for higher rigidity
Hardened guideways
Use of flat guides for increased damping and reduction of vibrations

Innovative gear cutting center for hobbing, profile millling and 4-axis milling

The machine has a new type of direct-drive cutter head as well as an additional finger milling head for external and internal gears with its own main column. This enables machining with hobbing, profile milling, and 4-axis milling on a single machine which is optimal for the manufacture of herringbone and double helical gears.
