What tolerances can you hold for CNC Gear Cutting 1008 Steel?
Achievable tolerances for 1008 Steel gear cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. We hold tight, repeatable tolerances appropriate to the feature and material. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
What gear accuracy class can you achieve on 1008 Steel?
Gear accuracy is specified to DIN/AGMA classes appropriate to the application. Profile and lead are controlled so 1008 Steel gears run accurately and quietly under load.
What is CNC Gear Cutting 1008 Steel and how is it done?
CNC Gear Cutting 1008 Steel refers to cNC gear cutting forms precise tooth profiles for spur, helical, bevel and worm gears. Applied to 1008 Steel — strong, economical and widely available — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
How clean are the edges produced by CNC Gear Cutting on 1008 Steel?
Machined 1008 Steel edges are clean and to specification; edge-break or deburring is added when your drawing calls for it.
