Wear behavior<br />

Flank wear is the chief form of<br />

wear occurring on carbide hobs.<br />

Pitting, which occurs on HSS<br />

hobs, is not normally significant on<br />

carbide hobs. Chipping at the<br />

cutting edge following penetration<br />

of the carbide coating may occasionally<br />

be observed. The chips<br />

may adhere to the uncoated<br />

cutting edge of K types following<br />

penetration of the coating. The<br />

point of first penetration of the<br />

coating must therefore be delayed<br />

as long as possible.<br />

Maintenance<br />

When regrinding solid carbide<br />

hobs, ensure that the thermal<br />

stress on the tooth tip is kept to a<br />

minimum. A defined edge treatment<br />

is also recommended. Depending<br />

upon the hob design (e.g.<br />

positive or negative rake angle,<br />

width of the tooth lands), approximately<br />

10 to 20 regrinds are possible.<br />

The "de-coating" and "re-coating"<br />

processes are required in addition<br />

for hobs manufactured from K<br />

type carbide.<br />

Structural dimensions<br />

The size table indicates the hob dimensions<br />

for which FETTE stocks<br />

carbide blanks. The blanks do not<br />

have drive slots. A drive slot can<br />

therefore be provided on either the<br />

left-hand or the right-hand indicator<br />

hub, as desired by the customer.<br />

FETTE recommends drive slots<br />

with reduced gash depth for carbide<br />

hobs. The gash dimensions<br />

can be found in the table below.<br />

The increase in wear is progressive<br />

from a wear mark width of approx.<br />

0.1 mm upwards, and has a considerable<br />

influence upon the economic<br />

viability of the process. We<br />

therefore recommend that a wear<br />

mark width of 0.15 mm not be exceeded,<br />

and that the cutter be recoated<br />

following each regrind.<br />

Chip adhesion to the worn and<br />

therefore uncoated cutting edges<br />

is much less common with the P<br />

types. Re-coating is not therefore<br />

necessary with these types.<br />

Further information on the maintenance<br />

of solid carbide hobs can<br />

be found on Page 168.<br />
