What is Skiving? Applications:

Skiving combines gear hobbing and gear shaping by continuous • Production of ring gears, shafts with internal and external
“rolling off” of material with axial feed. Skiving requires suitable splines and splined shaft profiles
machining centers and fully synchronized spindles for the highly • Highly suitable for soft machining of internal and
dynamic conditions of the manufacturing process.
external gears as well as hard machining

Axes of tool and workpiece cross during skiving. So-called axis • Use of the tools on turning /milling centers with B or A axes
cross angle is crucial for productivity. The crossed axis (swivel axes)
arrangement creates a relative speed between tool and workpiece. • No restrictions regarding the material to be machined
This relative movement is used as cutting movement with main
