Customized gear skiving
Technical progress has given a new lease of life to the almost forgotten method of gear skiving. Modern, fast direct drives increase the cutting speed and therefore the productivity. Low-wear cutting materials and innovative coatings ensure a long tool life. The combination of crossed axis angle, cutting speed, feeding and other kinematic parameters make the method very flexible: Particularly for internal gears in medium batch sizes and external gears with an interfering contour, gear skiving is an ace up your sleeve in the gear cutting range.
Whether they are in the supplier industry or contract manufacturing, all customers ultimately want to be optimally equipped for future market requirements and to enjoy the benefits offered by gear skiving. With the tried and tested, comprehensive all-round package Skiving³ and the open tool concept, Liebherr is a suitable partner for both groups.

Hard skiving: an alternative to grinding or honing
The hard skiving process opens up new possibilities for hard-fine machining of internal gears and splines that are difficult, unproductive or impossible to achieve using processes such as grinding or honing. It allows targeted compensation of hardening distortion, offers impressive flexibility, tool life and cost efficiency, and can be used on gear skiving machines from Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH with a simple tool change.
More than just gear skiving
The constantly rising demands from the markets, such as higher accuracy, more effective processes and increased flexibility, require sophisticated machine concepts. For this reason, the new gear skiving machine generation has been equipped among other things with a tool changing system integrated in the machine, multi-machining functions, an integrated measurement device for tools and the option of chamfering during the machining process.
How to: Customized gear skiving
Gear skiving is over 100 years old and has recently been experiencing a renaissance as a flexible and economical alternative to other gear cutting methods. However, this complex process frequently presents great challenges to users. In addition to Skiving³, a complete package consisting of machine, tool and process, Liebherr now also offers skiving tools for suppliers and job shops and the appropriate consultation.
