VARDEX Gear Milling
Advanced Technologies for Gear, Spline and Rack Manufacturing
VARDEX presents an original and innovative solution for the gear milling industry, offering a competitive alternative to the traditional Hob system. Gear manufacturers can now mill external splines, external cylindrical gears, sprockets and racks as well as many additional gear applications with VARDEX gear milling tools.
NEW CONCEPT FOR GEAR MILLING TOOLS:
Standard (Generic) Gear Milling Holders (End Mill, Shell Mill, Disc Mill) are now suitable for all standard inserts (DIN 3972, DIN 5480, ANSI B92.1) and tailor-made inserts.
The standard toolholder enables the use of the same toolholder for the same IC type inserts. No need for special toolholders for each individual profile!
Advantages of the Vargus Gear Milling System
- Shorter machining time - at least 50% less machining cycle time over other methods
- Carbide inserts with semi partial & partial designed for single pass machining
- Long tool life and high accuracy
- Excellent surface finish
- Simplified machining - easy set-up and use on standard 3.5 axis CNC milling machines
- Complete the job with Vargus Gear Milling Tools - no need for additional machining
