F0355; shaper cutter contour generator. [CDC6600,7600; IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6336159

Program F0355 produces a plot which shows the geometry of the cutter required to produce a given external circular spur gear or ratchet wheel. It is particularly applicable for non-involute tooth forms. In addition, the program can provide a comparator chart for inspecting cutters, indicate whether a given geometry can be shaped, and be used to determine the effects of changes in pitch diameter and related variables. The output of the program is a magnified drawing of the shaper cutter, the workpiece, and the paths of the cutter teeth. The program does not print a numerical description of the cutter profile.CDC6600,7600;IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV; SCOPE 3.4 (CDC6600), SCOPE 2.1 (CDC7600), OS/360,370 (IBM360,370); Approximately 55,000 (octal) words (CDC6600) or 126K bytes (IBM370) storage are required and auxiliary plotting equipment is used.
