Timelaps van der Wegen

[@siliconvalleyengineer5875]

I worked at the Westinghouse Marine Divisions in the 80's and 90's and large CVAN, LHD, Submarine gear sets where hobbed, ground and dynamically balanced there.

Great Process - What is the module you are capable of cutting? What is the quality?

[@impactodelsurenterprise2440]

How big of a CNC you want? Factory : All of me.

[@jtoftx]

What kind of machine is this giant gear going to be part of?

[@HansTimmermans]

Mining in the US.

[@m_a_s6069]

Looks like a girth gear for a rotary kiln.

[@vornamenachname6339]

a thing of beauty..

[@stevec.2702]

Impressed with the contact patch test. That should distribute the load nicely. I've seen a lot worse and the hand work to improve the contact area is boring . On a gear ring that size its not a practical solution.

Çok güzel tezgah maşallah

What is the background music on this?

[@HansTimmermans]

It;s my own music... i'm also a composer. You can find some music on my channel.

[@Larsosborne]

Can you explain what is happening in each step? I got a little confused why it was joined and then separated again. Also, very beautiful video and music. That is a marvelous machine and an incredible product.

[@HansTimmermans]

it's to get it perfect and it isn't twisted.

[@veltmanmachines7902]

If they unbolt that joint after premilling it opens up a couple of cm By remilling the faces the joints fits perfect again According my information this is the biggest hobbing machine in the world right now Capable of hobbing a 17.5 mtr gear according the manufactorer But 22mtr would be possible too I was told

[@paulmiddleton4215]

@@veltmanmachines7902 no doubt those halves will spring open and twisted too. the nature of the beast. are these segments fabricated, stress relieved, and then machined. assembled into a unit then semi-finished?

[@carypeltier8247]

So what was the total time? What is the name of the machining center? I worked at Falk Corp. And made these mill gears, but got shuttered during last down market. I’m pretty sure we could of machined faster.

[@waldrichcoburg]

It´s a PowerTec made by WALDRICH COBURG ;)

[@drvr1227]

What is the gear for?

[@tittyrino]

Grinding Cows into hamburger

[@mohammadlak7132]

very good

[@peterjohnston1224]

Are you SHITTING me?!?! I've seen big iron before, but nothing like this. Oh, and by the way, thank God it isn't China.

[@hubertkaiser8581]

wozu braucht man im digitalen Zeitalter so grosse Zahnantriebe? SCHWACHSINN.....

[@tanonespeed2011]

enjoy

[@businesstourMV]

We produce large machines more: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKqvgqenjqqbqs0

[@vonskipppy1152]

Why would a huge manufacturing company make such a boring and non-informative video? Geesh, so many ways to make this an exciting video - and they chose NONE of them.

[@davidwhite5256]

agreed , very poor indeed

[@HeathenGeek]

Really? I was gripped. if you can't fap to this then you're doing something wrong.

[@patrickspapens5497]

The video clearly states its a time-lapse video. There's nothing special about time-lapse, or informative for that matter. Only to show the way from pre to post-processing

[@andrewphillip8432]

Not sure why you would say that. Guess it could be boring if you’re not really paying attention to the details of each process, or just have a very short attention span.
