Klingelnberg P 90 CNC Bevel Gear Cutting Machine

The Klingelnberg P 90 is a large-capacity CNC bevel gear cutting machine designed for producing spiral bevel and hypoid gears for heavy-duty truck axles, mining equipment, construction machinery, and large industrial gearboxes. Part of Klingelnberg's Höfler-integrated portfolio, the P 90 delivers the geometric accuracy and throughput demanded by tier-1 driveline manufacturers operating at scale.

The P 90 uses Klingelnberg's Cyclo-Palloid spiral bevel gear system, a proprietary cutting method that produces gears with continuous indexing and uniform tooth depth, enabling smooth quiet mesh characteristics essential for premium driveline applications. The machine's 6-axis CNC architecture provides full freedom to generate any flank form modification required by the gear design, including ease-off and crowning corrections specified through Klingelnberg's KIMoS software suite.

With a maximum workpiece diameter of 900 mm and module capacity to 16, the P 90 handles the largest bevel gears found in truck and off-highway axle production. Its thermal management system uses targeted temperature control at all heat-generating components, while the machine's hydrostatic guideways eliminate wear and maintain accuracy over decades of production use.

Klingelnberg provides a closed-loop manufacturing system connecting the P 90 to the company's Höfler cylindrical gear grinders and P-series bevel gear inspection centers, allowing measurement data to automatically correct cutting machine parameters. This integration reduces scrap and setup time significantly in high-volume production environments.
