Abstract
To provide a gear machining apparatus capable of correcting a tooth trace error without using a special tool when a hob cutter is cantilever-supported. A gear machining apparatus includes a hob cutter machining a tooth profile on a workpiece, a tool spindle device rotatably cantilever-supporting the hob cutter, a workpiece spindle device rotatably supporting the workpiece, a driving device moving the tool spindle device and the workpiece spindle device relatively to each other, a measuring device measuring the value corresponding to a bending amount of the hob cutter or a rotation synchronization shift of the workpiece spindle device with respect to the tool spindle device and a correction processing unit correcting a cutting amount of the hob cutter T or the rotation synchronization shift of the workpiece spindle device with respect to the tool spindle device based on the value measured by the measuring device.
