The invention discloses a
machining method of a worm gear with the straight profile
helical surface. The
machining method comprises step 1, installing a fly cutter, wherein a right tooth-shaped fly cutter and a left tooth-shaped fly cutter are separately fixed on a cutter rod of the fly cutter through screws and the cutter rod of the fly cutter is connected with a cutter frame of a
machine tool; step 2, adjusting the
machine tool, wherein the installation basic surface of the cutter rod is corrected with the working surface of the
machine tool as the benchmark when the cutter rod with the installed cutter is arranged on the
machine tool so as to enable the center line of the cutter rod of the fly cutter to be parallel to the working surface; step 3, performing cutter setting, wherein the
cutting edges of the right tooth-shaped fly cutter and the left tooth-shaped fly cutter are symmetrical relative to the center line of a rotary working table; step 4, determining the spiral inclined angle of the worm gear, wherein the inclined angle of a
grinding wheel, relative to the axis of the worm gear when a worm is ground, namely the inclined angle of the main plane, serves as the spiral angle of the machined worm gear and a differential hanging wheel of the
machine tool is adjusted according to the inclined angle; step 5, performing feeding, wherein the feeding is performed to the total tooth depth in the radial direction and the axial feeding is performed to achieve the
machining of the worm gear. According to the machining method of the worm gear with the straight profile
helical surface, the machining method is simple and the accuracy of the worm gear is high.
