Since marine gears are high speed gears and also there are chances of high shocks during operation so the gears surfaces must be strong enough to withstand dynamic loading and wear resistance. So, in order to get these properties we do Heat Treatment that includes:
1.Pre-hardening processAnnealing- Improves machinability- Involves heating to
870C and then slowly cooled to 315C in a furnace.
Normalizing- Controlling dimensional variations during hardening processes.
- Heating to 800C and then cooling in atmospheric air to relieve residual stresses.
Heat Treatment
2.Hardening Process
Case Hardening- To produce hard, wear-resistant surface layer on top of a ductile, shock-resistant core.
- Idea is to keep the core of gear teeth at a level of 30-40 HRC to avoid tooth breakage while hardening at outer surface up to 50 HRC to increase pitting resistance.
Carburizing- A Time-proven process in which a carbon-rich atmosphere surrounding the workload is used to chemically react with the surface of the parts to allow an adequate quantity of carbon to be absorbed at surface and diffused into the material.

•MARINE GEARS ARE MADE HAVING FACE WIDTH UPTO 1000 mm
• THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO TRANSMIT POWER UPTO 15 MW (20,000 HP)
MANUFACTURING PROCESSES INVOLVED
CASTING : Centrifugal casting is used for manufacturing these large gear blanks.
• In this method the mould is rotated about its central axis and there exists a continuous pressure as metal is solidifying
• This method is predominantly used for radial symmetrical casting
GENERATION OF TEETH BY MACHINING ON CASTED BLANKS
HOBBING
•Hob teeth are shaped to match the tooth space and are interrupted with grooves to provide cutting surfaces. It rotates about an axis normal to that of the gear blank, cutting into the rotating blank to generate the teeth.
•It is the most accurate of the roughing processes since no repositioning of tool or blank is required and tooth is cut by multiple hob-teeth.
•Excellent surface finish is achieved.
FINISHING OPERATIONS
• Grinding : In grinding , a contoured grinding wheel is run over machined surface of the gear teeth using computer control .
• Small amount of metal removal with high surface finish is obtained
• Lapping : Lapping employs an abrasive-impregnated gear or gear-shaped tool that
is run against the gear to abrade the surface.
• In lapping the abrasive tool drives the gear to an accelerated and controlled run-in
to improve surface finish and the accuracy.
• The figure shows the lapping operation for spiral bevel gears in employed in
marine.

Heat treatment processes are not included in the FMS Layout but it will come after hobbing process.
Part mix is assumed on the basis of the number of gears present in a standard gearbox of marine engine.

TESTING OF MANUFACTURED GEAR
PARKINSON’S GEAR TESTING METHOD
•The standard gear is mounted on a fixed spindle and the gear to be tested is mounted on another spindle which can slide over a carriage
•The dial indicator gives the deviation of teeth profile of gear being tested
A flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is a manufacturing system in which there is some amount of flexibility that allows the system to react in case of changes, whether predicted or unpredicted.
Most FMS consist of three main systems. The work machines which are often automated CNC machines are connected by a material handling system to optimize parts flow and the central control computer which controls material movements and machine flow.
