CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten from VT machining delivers precision Tungsten parts produced to your exact drawing. Gear hobbing generates gear teeth with a rotating hob synchronized to the workpiece, and we tune every parameter to the behaviour of Tungsten, which is extreme hardness, density and heat resistance.
CNC Gear Hobbing Capability for Tungsten
- Spur & helical gears
- Module range support
- Pre-grind accuracy
- High productivity
How CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten Works
Tooth profiles are generated in the Tungsten blank by a synchronised cutter, then refined to the required accuracy class. Module, pressure angle and helix are programmed from your gear data.
We start from your supplied geometry and tolerance scheme. The setup is designed to minimise re-clamping, which protects positional accuracy across features. A first article is verified against the drawing before the balance of the batch is released.
Design Tips for CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten
Small design adjustments often cut cost and lead time. Providing complete gear data (module, pressure angle, profile shift, quality class) lets us produce Tungsten gears right the first time. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Gear Hobbing Tolerances & Surface Finish
Gear features are produced to a specified DIN/AGMA accuracy class, with profile and lead controlled for quiet, durable running under load.
The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.
CNC Gear Hobbing Quality & Inspection
Quality is built in, not inspected on. We monitor key features during the run and confirm them at final inspection, with CMM verification available for tight tolerances. We provide the inspection and traceability records your quality system requires.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Most Tungsten parts need some finishing, which we manage in-house or through vetted partners. Options include deburring and edge-breaking, heat treatment, surface grinding, polishing, and plating or anodising for corrosion resistance and appearance. Give us the finished-part requirement and we will sequence every operation correctly.
Working with Tungsten
Tungsten is extreme hardness, density and heat resistance. We translate those properties into a process plan: the right tooling, speeds, feeds and fixturing for the alloy.
Where the grade, temper or heat-treat condition matters to performance, we confirm it with you and can supply material certificates. Material is procured to recognised standards for consistent, repeatable results.
Applications of CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten
Tungsten parts made this way are found throughout aerospace, medical, automotive, electronics and industrial equipment. Prototype, bridge and production volumes are all welcome.
How to Order CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten
Starting your project takes one email. Send your CAD or 2D drawing, the Tungsten grade and condition, the quantity and any finish or inspection requirements. We respond quickly with price, lead time and any DFM notes, in clear English.

How clean are the edges produced by CNC Gear Hobbing on Tungsten?
Machined Tungsten edges are clean and to specification; edge-break or deburring is added when your drawing calls for it.
Which industries use CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten parts?
CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten parts are used across aerospace, medical, automotive, electronics, semiconductor and general industrial sectors — anywhere precise Tungsten components are required.
Does CNC Gear Hobbing Tungsten require dedicated tooling?
Most Tungsten gear cutting work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
Why is Tungsten a good choice for CNC Gear Hobbing?
Tungsten is extreme hardness, density and heat resistance, which makes it well suited to CNC Gear Hobbing. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished Tungsten gear cutting part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
