The LCS line from Liebherr is an optimal machine concept for the hard-fine machining of bore- and shaft-type gears. The gear grinding machines are suitable for workpieces up to a diameter of 1250 mm, plus they are versatile and extremely productive. Liebherr machines for grinding gears can be individually configured for every customer. The LGF line allows profile grinding of external and internal gears. The basis for this is the directly driven table, which in conjunction with the machine bed made of mineral casting guarantees maximum precision over the entire service life. Type...

Gear shaping machines are employed primarily in the production of internal and external gears on workpieces with limited tool overrun. That means that the special workpiece geometry or interference conditions only make machining possible using the shaping process. Gear shaping machines are equipped with cutting tools from our own production which are optimally matched to the process and the machine. 8 Gear Technology and Automation Systems
