hi guys! i'm new to the site and i would like to hear opinions from the experts in the field of metalworking... my concern deals with causes of burrs..
i became a trainee in a manufacturing firm where they fabricate gears to be used in transmission of vehicles... in line with that, deburring certain output is imperative to meet standards...
the personnel in the company attribute occurrence of burrs with unsharpened gear cutters... i've read articles listing causes why burrs occur, informing me that dull cutters are not the sole reason of having burrs in a workpiece; causes includes nature of material being process, immediate environment of the workpiece, etc...
to those who are familiar with the issue, i would like to ask for a rough estimate... what percent of the problem can be attributed to unsharpened cutters? meaning to say, what percent reduction of instances in having burrs may be solved by properly adhering to change cutter schedule...
thanks in advance!![]()
