Abstract
The process of gear machining consumes a large amount of energy and causes serious pollution to the environment. Developing a proper process route of gear machining is the key to conserving energy and reducing emissions. Nowadays, the proper process route of gear machining is based on experience and is difficult to keep up with the development of modern times. In this article, a calculation model of low-carbon and low-energy consumption in gear machining processes was established based on an analysis of the machining process. With processing parameters as independent variables, the grey wolf algorithm was used to solve the problem. The effectiveness of the method was proven by an example of the machining process of an automobile transmission shaft.
