Rospotrebnadzor published recommendations to remove restrictions imposed due to the
spread of the new coronavirus. The agency proposed a three-stage scheme, which is based
on three main indicators - the spread of infection, free bed capacity and coverage of the
population with testing. What should be the values of these indicators in order for the abolition The most important directions of the
of restrictions to begin, as well as what they will open and allow at each stage - in the Ria.ru development of gear processing machines

shown.
Despite the limited technological capabilities, Therefore, gaps in the gears are
gearing the equipment is quite expensive since eliminated and high rigidity is ensured
machines are specialized to perform a specific

to the workpiece and tool. This solution
them, in most cases are not feasible on machines allows not to use precise dividing gears
of other types, so they can be the cause of (for rotating the workpiece or tool), which
bottlenecks in production. In this regard, gear have a decisive influence on the kinematic
processing equipment has been in operation for a
long time and requires periodic modernization. accuracy of the machine, which with direct
drives is determined by feedback sensors
The modernization of machines in most and changes little during operation, unlike
cases has the goal of increasing (or restoring) the scheme with intermediate gears. A
kinematic accuracy, expanding technological number of advantages appear, including
capabilities, replacing the main components with
more modern ones, improving service conditions hardening the design of machines (there
are no complex components with kinematic
and requires serious changes in the design. chains), increasing technological reliability
The most common direction of modernization (longer preserving kinematic accuracy), a
of gear hobbing and gear shaping machines is the wider level of unification between machines
