The correct choice of the dimensions of the workpiece product is one of the main problems, the solution of which depends on the reduction of the consumption of materials and energy, as well as the quality of the wheels obtained by plastic deformation. Referring to the manufacture of conical wheels with convex-concave profile of the teeth by knurling, the height of the teeth is determined by the condition of the equal volume of metal that moves from the gaps between the teeth to their tip during the plastic deformation by rolling. The use of methods for the manufacture of teeth without chipping will allow the increase of the utilization coefficient of expensive materials.
