Abstract
A single-tooth cutter for sloping the axial face of gears, in which the gear which is to be worked performs a continuous or step-by-step rotary movement whereby successive rotations of the single-tooth cutter will cause a working on successive teeth at least one sloped surface, and in which the workpiece and the single-tooth cutter after each workpiece rotation approach one another, until the desired sloped shape is reached, the chip removal occurring through the provision of at least two edges which in peripheral direction are arranged one directly behind the other. A cutter which can also be used for this has two edges which act one directly after the other, which edges can have a different distance from the axis of rotation of the cutter.
