Abstract:

Complex surface methods are widely used in various industrial tools such as cutting tools, shell of television, turbine blades etc. Researchers tend to concentrate on conjugate surfaces, which can be produced by digital method to optimize any process. Conjugate surface deals with relative motion. Most of the cases pertain to power transmitting devices such as gears. Providing conjugate surface is very difficult, and to overcome this problem, digital conjugatemethod has been introduced. It produces event complex conjugate surfaces. In such cases, researchers have focused on Digital Gear Tooth Surface (DGTS). It causes conjugate motion between the gear teeth, which is represented through discrete points, and with these discrete points, the digital surface of conjugate moments is resolved. Computer simulated examples generate and machine the non-standard and complex shapes of digital conjugate tooth surfaces. This technique is not only useful for machining discrete digital gear tooth surfaces and gear tooth surface with complex design, but also other 3D digital surfaces with optimized process.
