Abstract: The present paper deals with an analysis of the kinematics and geometry of the tooth engagement of the harmonic drive, and presents a new method for determining tooth profiles of the harmonic ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to clarify the surface smoothing process under contact states with a small relative slide between the tool and workpiece. An internal ironing apparatus was developed ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to clarify the mechanism of a smooth surface generation in the ironing process under contact states with a largely relative slide. In this case, the outflow ...
