Gear burnishing has become a valuable method of gear tooth surface improvement. It is designed to remove or reduce gear tooth nicks and burrs, along with improving the smoothness of the tooth's active profile finish. The action of the burnishing dies on the tooth surface allows the machine to accomplish these quality improvements without altering the tooth profile or lead. Both internal and external gears are possible to burnish. Contact us to determine if your application can be burnished. New Product Annountement Learn about our new Spiral Gash Dies
