Radial Hobbing
In this method of hobbing, the hob feeds radially to depth at a controlled rate per revolution of the component. When producing wormwheels this motion is all that is necessary and the work is finished once the hob reaches full depth. It is also useful when the approach distance required by axial hobbing is limited.
Hob path :- (see diagram)
1) traverse in:- to clear of component.
2) feed in:- to required depth.
3) traverse out:- clear of component.
