An algorithm for synthesis of spiral bevel gear transmissions with a small shaft angle is presented. The algorithm of synthesis provides machine-tool settings with account of design limits for majority of gear generating machines. The proposed algorithm makes it possible to decrease the dimensions of machines that are used for gear and pinion tooth generation. The computer program of synthesis is developed that is based on described algorithm. Recommendations on selection of proper synthesis parameters are presented. An example of synthesis and analysis of a transmission is considered.
