What is it about?

The paper deals with the geometry of a pretty complicated cutting tool that is named "gear hob" and used in spur or helical gear manufacturing processes. The form of the cutting edge theoretically changes when the tool is re-sharpened, but this change of form is neglectable. More important phenomenon is the migration of the edge approaching to the tool axis, decreasing of characteristic diameters, By this, the edges are disposed on a worm surface thet differes from the original. Due to this, errors occur.

Why is it important?

In my opinion it is important to build up more realistic geometrical models that fit better the real meshing process
