The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

CNC gear measuring instruments measure gears by scanning across the tooth surface. A Renishaw laser interferometer system with position based dynamic data capture hardware and software was used to verify position errors on slides at the normal scanning speed used when measuring gears. The results from a HoĢˆfler EMZ 632 CNC gear tester in the UK national Gear Metrology Laboratory are presented and show that the technique generates realistic data for calibration purposes under closely controlled laboratory conditions. A comparison between data gathered under dynamic conditions and static conditions is made. Some important considerations applying the technique are discussed.
