    Machine tool manufacturers (such as Klingelnberg and Gleason) also have their own processes for
    generating tooth forms that differ slightly from the procedures mentioned above. The tooth form is
    called an octoid, and may differ slightly from our tooth form. However, we have ascertained that the
    difference between the tooth forms is much less than the tolerance range, and will not cause any
    problems in practical use.

    11.4.4 Worm wheel - generating a 3D model


    The 3D model of the enveloping worm wheel is generated by simulating the actual cutting process.
    The tooth forms at several sections along the facewidth are calculated, and the tooth flank is
    approximated as a spline surface. The model is generated using the best possible tool to
    manufacture the worm. Theoretically, the tool generates the worm, in regard to arc of circle, pressure
    angle, and tooth form. However, if the tool itself was manufactured to these specifications, it would
    no longer be usable after resharpening, because it would be smaller than the worm. The tools used
    to manufacture worm wheels are therefore slightly larger than the worm they are to create so that
