Sumario:High temperature and strain will occur in the cutting area during dry milling of contour bevel gears, which causes plastic deformation of the workpiece, resulting in changes in the physical properties of the machined surface’s metamorphic layer, reducing the quality of the workpiece’s machined surface. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the properties of the metamorphic layer and the work hardening behavior of the machined surfaces of contour bevel gears. The paper first establishes a single-tooth finite element simulation model for a contour bevel gear and extracts the temperature field, strain field and strain rate at different depths from the machined surface. Then, based on the simulation results, the experiment of milling contour bevel gears is carried out, the microscopic properties of the machined metamorphic layer are studied using XRD diffractometer and ultra-deep field microscopy, and the work hardening behavior of the machined metamorphic layer under different cutting parameters is studied. Finally, the influence of the cutting parameters on the thickness of the metamorphic layer of the machined surface is investigated by scanning electron microscopy. The research results can not only improve the surface quality and machinability of the workpiece, but are also significant for increasing the fatigue strength of the workpiece.
