A long time ago in a basement far, far away.....
All things evolve stagnate or die. In this case the original 3018 was used as a model for a 4th and 5th axis machine.
I had a bit of an engineering challenge.
https://www.mdpi.com/2075-1702/12/8/496 ugh, a bit out of my wheelhouse but there's a bit of an idea showing itself.

So about everything you could ever want to know about a (Face) crown gear is contained there, but what we have here is a Timex, not a Rolex. What I need is a best, most bang for the buck approximation of a face gear.
First things first.
Requirements. These gears are small, 64 diametrical pitch or .3969 module (close enough to .4 it doesn't matter)
At some point quit thinking about it and make the gears.
On the way to a finished product always keep in mind that there could be a path to mass production.
On the other hand $100,000 equipment for a $10 gear makes no sense in quantities below 50,000.
On the gripping hand, a cost efficient method with little time and materials wasted could easily produce tens of thousands at not much more than the mass produced product.
Next up. The math.
NXP
...well to answer that question and others that were not asked. This is my investigation into the MRF300AN/BN devices. Any similarity to the NXP MRFX1K80H is purely intentional I figured it's good enough for the designers and manufacturers of the 65V 1600w+ device it's probably a good place to...
