The gear hobbing machine VLC 250 WF is designed for the manufacturing of wheel-shaped workpieces with a diameter up to 220 mm and gear module 4. The VLC 250 WF offers the user the most flexibility, since it can be used as a single-spindle turning machine, a gear hobbing machine or a combination of both. In other words, the user gets two machines, which can change with component demands. If an additional operation becomes necessary – such as roller burring, for instance – this can be integrated in a separate machining station. The main application, however, is the precision gear hobbing of gear profiles on medium and large batches of components.
