This book presents the DG/K-based method of surface generation, a novel and practical mathematical method for designing gear cutting tools with optimal parameters. The author, an industry leader for the past 30 years, proposes a scientific classification for all possible kinds of the gear machining meshes before discussing optimal designs of gear cutting tools. This classification makes it possible to consider all possible designs of gear cutting tools, including those currently used in practice and those expected to be used in the future. It also allows the author to develop scientific predictions and optimal designs. In most cases, solutions appear in analytical form and/or graphical form.

Despite decades of extensive research in this field, no solution to the problem of optimal part surface generation has been found. Kinematic Geometry Surface Machining fills the gap between the capabilities of modern multi-axis numerical controlled machines and the demands of the market. This book presents the latest research in the field of optimal surface generation. It provides an overview of modern CAD/CAM systems for high precision sculptured part surfaces. Including real-world examples and end-of-chapter references, the text also explains in detail how to develop the most cost-effective methods of machining for high quality sculptured surfaces on a multi-axis numerical controlled machine.
