In recent years, gear skiving technology has demonstrated unique advantages in the fields of new energy vehicles, industrial robots, new energy devices, etc., and the engineering demand is very urgent. Unfortunately, however, the gear skiving tool technology is still immature, which seriously restricts the large-scale industrial application of gear skiving technology.
