Based on the mesh theory of face-gear and spur involute gear
the mathematical model of the orthogonal face-gear shaping is established.The tooth profile equations of face-gear shaping are obtained.The dimension of the face-gear is determined.The design and fabrication of the face-gear shaping worktable are done.The shaping trial is carried out in the shaping machine Y514
and the tooth surface contact pattern is obtained by the rolling inspection.It is proved on the theoretic derivation and the feasibility of face-gear shaping.
