    HELP Please

    I am trying to machine a Helical Gear but i am struggling to get Sprutcam to do the job.

    I have created the gear cutter form tool. The gear black will be mounted in a 4th axis at 20deg

    The gear needs to rotate on the A axis while feeding in X and Y to cut the teeth with the side of the gear cutter.

    I know this is possible and will be a really nice process when done but I just cant get it to program.

    Any help much appreciated.

    I have attached the Sprutcam file as well if it helps there are a few of my tries but no success.

    Thanks Peter
