Abstract

Aimed at satisfying the development demands of modern manufacturing for high quality spiral bevel gears, it is thought to be urgent and crucial to improve their machining efficiency and quality. The continuous maturing and fusion of information and network technologies open a new route for the manufacture of spiral bevel gears. With the consideration of requirements for the fast growth of such industry, this paper proposes a network-based manufacturing model for spiral bevel gears by combining the technologies of gear manufacturing with network, information and management. Firstly, the application integration framework and network communication architecture for spiral bevel gears network-based manufacture is built. On that basis, the business model of integrated platform for spiral bevel gears network-based manufacture is established. Subsequently, the information integration framework of network-based manufacturing processes is set up. Finally, through the network-based manufacturing application experiment and effect analysis, the feasibility of the proposed model, as well as the effectiveness on improving the processing efficiency and quality of such gears is verified.
