Hey G'day,

Does gearotic handle gear hobbing?

I've been reading that it is an easier way of creating gears easily adaptable method for a CnC with a 4th axis rotary.
(reading is a dangerous hobby of mine sometimes lol)

Cheers,
Steve

The tangental shaving function can do single pass on each tooth as an option, this is basically hobbing as far as
the cnc motion is concerned.. just have to use the right hob for whatever mod/dp you have it setup for.
