Is it possible to drive a 4th axis as a slave to the spindle to hob a gear using Centroid software?

Re: electronic gearing and gear hobbing
I work for the Gleason works as a service engineer. I am also interested if the control will function this way.

Re: electronic gearing and gear hobbing
I see this is a really old thread, but I also have a need to cut some gears. Has there been any development on hobbing?
Cheers,

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.
