An Automated System for Inspecting Surface Finishes of Gear Teeth

This paper presents an automated system for inspecting surface finish quality of gear teeth. The purpose of the presented system is to improve both efficiency and reliability of a gear inspection process with a lower cost. The system consists of two modules; one is for data collection and the other for data analysis. While and A/D converter is built in a PC to efficiently obtain digitized data, a window-based software for conducting quality tests is provided using VISUAL BASIC as well as C++. We successfully connect them with the existing gear tester. This system would be also useful for the gear quality improvement by means of a continuous data management.
