摘要:The “virtual pole” method allows profiling of the cutting tools that generate by rolling. This mode of generation is advantageous in terms of the accuracy of the geometric shape obtained. The mentioned method combines the analytical accuracy of profiling with a simplified calculation mode, compared to the established algorithms. The paper presents an application made on the basis of the “virtual pole” method, for the profiling of the gear shaped tool, designed to generate the bore of a bush with a K-profile. Based on this methodology, in house software was developed for the type of profile mentioned above. The program allows the numerical and graphical representation of the profile to be generated, the contact curve and the profile of the generating tool.
