- 11 - ABSTRACT A method of preparing a gear blank for roll-finishing, essentially comprising the step of: while supporting a gear blank with pitch-line chucking, finish-sizing the central axial opening of the gear blank to a desired concentricity to promote accurate subsequent roll-finishing. Also, a method of making roll-finished gears, comprising: (a) preparing a near-net-shape gear blank, with external gear teeth and a central axial opening, by intimately engaging and supporting the gear blank between two opposing roll-finishing gear dies, without teeth finishing pressure; (b) finish-sizing the sides of said axial opening to attain a concentricity between the gear blank's intended tooth pitch circle and said sized sides that is within the range of .001 inch TIR; and (c) inserting a snugly fitting arbor into said opening and completing roll-finishing of the gear blank by progressively bringing the roll-finishing dies together to exert teeth finishing pressure and rotating said dies to form the desired gear teeth on said gear blank. 6616L
