While face milled hypoid gears have been widely studied, about face hobbed ones only veryfewstudies have been developed. Aim of this paperis just to propose an accurate tool forcomputerized design of face hobbed hypoid gears. Firstly, amathematical model ableto compute detailed geartooth surface representation will be derived; then, the obtained surfaces will be employed as input for an advanced contact solver that, using a hybrid method combining finite element technique with semianalytical solutions, is able to efficiently carry out contact analysis under light and heavy loads and stress calculation of these gears.
