Abstract

See full text

A method of replacing at least one tooth of a gear includes providing a tool jig including a mounting block with a plurality of indexing jig features. The tool jig also includes a tool-supporting feature in laterally movable contact with a jig rail feature. With at least one indexing jig feature, relative motion of the tool jig relative to the gear is resisted. A material-removal tool is operated, while attached to the tool-supporting feature in the tooth-removal position, to remove at least a portion of a working circumference of the gear including a native gear tooth to be replaced. Motion of the material-removal tool is guided to generate a circumferential gear cut including a relatively smooth first cut surface formed by removal of at least the native gear tooth to be replaced. The material-removal tool is removed from the tool-supporting feature. The tool jig is removed from the gear.
