With the advent of the latest technologies for manufacturing military equipment and weapons, along with the progress of modern computing technology, designers are faced with the need to develop new, more effective methods for modeling conjugate curved surfaces of kinematic pairs of gearing without interference. The article considers the issues of creating a method for modeling the profile of a multi-cut worm cutter for machining helical gears in weapons and military equipment. This modeling method is aimed at improving the processing of toothed conjugate curvilinear gears used in gun lifting mechanisms, tank turret turning mechanisms, and self-propelled artillery installations. The reliability and durability of modern mechanical engineering products, which include a large number of elements with complex conjugate curved surfaces of gearing, are largely determined by the accuracy of their manufacture. In the practice of modeling kinematic pairs of conjugate curved surfaces, certain difficulties often arise that are closely related to the creation of gear products for military equipment and weapons. That is why it is relevant to develop an effective method for modeling the profile of a multi-prong worm cutter for machining conjugate curved tooth surfaces, which allows avoiding interference even at the design stage of the product of components and assemblies of weapons and military equipment. The proposed method will help improve the modeling process, as well as increase the accuracy of gear machining and the overall productivity of production processes with the proposed milling cutter.
