Gear Expo Preview: Ingersoll Booth 235

Ingersoll will be exhibiting the latest advancements in its gear machining tools. Whether it’s hobbing, gashing, shaping, or CNC machining, be sure to visit booth # 235 to see what’s new in indexable insert gear machining tools. “We will have our industry experts in the booth, and are eager to discuss your particular gear cutting needs and applications,” says Frank Berardi, gear machining product manager. “Our new line of Radial Insert Hobs will be a major focus at the show. The radial hob is designed primarily for smaller module gears. It is available in 1-Start, 2-Start and 3-Starts, and in screw down or wedge style insert mounting.

Additionally, there will also be a live demo in Liebherr’s booth (510) featuring the Module 7, Radial Hob on a Liebherr LC500 machine. “We will also have the latest designs in positive and negative geometry gashers for internal and external gears, as well as our indexable insert shapers, which have been extremely successful in roughing applications, reducing cycle times as much as 50 percent in many cases,” Berardi adds.
