Dipl.-Ing.(FH) Uwe Gaiser is Director Product Management Bevel Gears and Director Gear Technology at the Gleason Corporation. Starting as an Application Engineer for Bevel
Gears 28 years ago, he has become expert in every aspect of Gear Design and Development,
from drawing concept all the way to vehicle gearbox assembly. During studying mechanical engineering, Uwe Gaiser was instrumental in the development of first-correction-capabilities of 3D-measurements of bevel gears with the Gleason G-AGE software releases worldwide. His final diploma topic at the University was Single-Flank testing of automotive bevel gears at a well-known luxury car manufacturer. Since then, working for Gleason Corporation, he has filed several bevel gear related patent applications in the area of bevel gear grinding, blade geometry and production methodologies.
By 2030, the global robotics market size is expected to range anywhere from $160 billion to $260 billion. The world is expecting robots to do a lot of the “heavy lifting” going forward. But with demand pressuring supply for many of the essential components, new production technologies are needed to keep pace. Nowhere is this truer than for the smaller, high-precision spiral and hypoid bevel gears that play such a critical role in transmitting power and delivering precise, reliable movement in increasingly complex, multiaxis robotic systems. Yet, manufacturers of these gears have, up until now, had surprisingly few options available to help them ramp up production of this new generation of high-efficiency bevel gears—particularly in the increasingly common size range of 100 mm in diameter and smaller.
Gleason's Coniflex® Pro Design and Manufacturing System for producing stronger, quieter, and more reliable e-drive differential gears in high volumes, for automotive, truck, bus and off-highway transmissions. It‘s the differential difference!
Exciting new machine, cutting tool and software technologies are compelling
many manufacturers to take a fresh look at producing their larger gears on machining centers. They're faster than ever, more flexible, easy to operate, highly affordable - and for any type of gear.
