hello everyone, after a few years of using spur gears, i need to make helicals, i transformed my pfauter 10 years ago, i work with parallel port.
i think i need to add coder, but i dont know how, someone to help me.
have a nice day

Me and Dad have a 18" Gould & Eberhardt gear hobber and will eventually retrofit it, so will be checking and watching this.
(Aciera) Yes you are correct, it will need to tilt the hob a few degrees, and he could be talking about an encoder getting it super accurate for the tilt, but he may be talking about encoding the hob rotation and tying the hob to the gear drive so that he can eliminate the change gears... this is what I want to do in the future.
Hello ,
here is the file of my gear cutter, it has been working for 10 years for spur gears without problem, I would like to be able to make the helicals.
I think that it is necessary to add an encoder at the level of the table to be able to make the differential with linucnc.
the gears have 24 teeth at 30 ° and 48 teeth at 60 ° module 2.
Well, now we know what your config looks like, that's good but I still have no idea what your machine looks like physically. Show us some photographs of the machine so we get an idea of its kinematics, axis and geometry.
