This two-day event June 12 - 13, 2024, at the company's North American headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan, will highlight real customers who have leveraged Zoller technology to optimize their manufacturing processes and boost profits.
Attendees will gain familiarization with spur, helical, bevel and hypoid gear nomenclature, the use of various cutting methods in Gleason machines as well as the tooling and processes used in gear manufacturing. Topics include gear classification, cutting methods, blank tolerances and configurations, inspection, testing, and workholding.
Control 2024 (Stuttgart, Germany) offers the most up-to-date technologies from the fields of vision technology, image processing, sensor technology, as well as measuring and test technology and quality assurance. “Measurement, testing, inspection, evaluation, documentation-end-to-end solutions for these functions are required everywhere because more and more data is being captured, analyzed, linked and fed back to the respective systems in order to achieve transparency and consistency. This is why software and intelligent evaluation algorithms are playing an increasingly important role,” explains Fabian Krüger, project manager.

Read MoreAutomatica is a trade fair for intelligent automation and robotics covers the entire value-added chain: from components to systems; from services to applications—for all manufacturing sectors. It offers an overview of current developments and innovations and thus provides the necessary orientation and investment security.
Read MoreWhile function and rating are important factors in a successful gear design, to be truly optimal and successful, the gear designer must also design the gears to be manufactured and inspected. In this course, therefore, we will address key factors in a wide variety of manufacturing and inspection processes to enable the gear designer to better design optimal gears considering both rating and the necessary manufacturing and inspection processes to produce the gears as designed. We will also help the designer to understand how to interpret inspection data so that they can ensure that the gears meet the design. To be clear, this is not a course in how to operate the various machines. Rather it addresses the design provisions that are required to allow the gears to be optimally manufactured and inspected. The learner will develop a broad understanding of the methods used to manufacture and inspect gears, as well as interpret how the resultant information can be applied and interpreted in the design process.
