Frequently Asked Questions about used Gear Hobbing
What is a gear hobbing machine and what is it used for?
A gear hobbing machine cuts gear teeth in the hobbing process, in which a rotating hob and the workpiece run in a fixed rotational relationship to each other. It produces spur and helical gears, splines, sprockets and worm wheels efficiently in series production. Typical users are gearbox manufacturers, automotive suppliers and general drive technology companies.
How do I choose the right used gear hobbing machine for my parts?
The key criteria are the required module and workpiece diameter range, the number of axes and the generation of the CNC control, since these determine whether your parts can be cut economically and to the accuracy you need. The condition of the hob head, guideways and rotary table matters just as much, along with the availability of hobs, spare parts and programming documentation. Asset-Trade supports the selection with a free machine appraisal and a dedicated project manager.
How much does a used gear hobbing machine cost?
The price depends mainly on machine size, gear range, control type, level of automation and overall condition, so no blanket figure applies. Used gear hobbing machines at Asset-Trade are typically 40 to 70% below the price of a comparable new machine. After a free machine appraisal you receive a specific offer for the machines that match your part spectrum.
How is a used gear hobbing machine inspected before purchase?
Asset-Trade inspects every machine in a multi-stage process with functional tests, checks of the spindle, axes and rotary table, and a test cut that shows tooth quality and running smoothness. You can also inspect the gear hobbing machine on site and have it demonstrated under power. All findings are documented so you know the condition before you decide.
Can Asset-Trade ship a gear hobbing machine overseas and handle the export?
Yes, Asset-Trade arranges worldwide shipping and export, including loading, sea freight and the required export documents. The whole process follows a 7-step purchase process in which a dedicated project manager coordinates deadlines, paperwork and logistics. Dismantling and transport packing of the gear hobbing machine can be planned as part of the same scope.
What are the alternatives to a gear hobbing machine and what mistakes should I avoid when buying used?
Depending on the part, gear shaping, gear grinding or milling on a machining centre can be alternatives, offering advantages for internal gears, hardened wheels or small batch sizes. Common mistakes when buying used are skipping a test cut, ignoring an outdated control and scarce spare parts, and underestimating transport, installation and tooling supply. Clarifying the required gear range and accuracy targets in advance helps avoid an expensive wrong purchase.
