A method and apparatus for finishing bevel gears has a pair of bevel gears which are rotatably engaged in a meshing fashion while being imparted with a brake force therebetween and one of the bevel gears is rocked against the other along a tooth profile direction extending between a tooth top and tooth root of a gear tooth in a manner such that the rocking bevel gear swingably rocks around its pitch apex of the base pitch cone thereof. Further, the bevel gears finish contacting gear tooth surfaces of at least one of the bevel gears both by rotational contact and by sliding contact by rocking motion. |
