Abstract :
This paper investigates the geometric characteristics of the sun-worm and the stationary internal toroidal gear in toroidal drive, explores the three dimensional modeling, carries out kinematical simulation and interference detection for this kind of drive. Further, the dynamical simulation is also developed. Finally, the NC manufacturing simulation is propose that solves cutter selection and undercutting elimination for the practical NC manufacturing of the stationary internal toroidal gear.
