technical Rules for Optimal Basic Design of Bevel Gears
The gear engineer should design bevel gears with an offset whenever possi-ble— especially small offsets that achieve the desired advantages without the poten-tial disadvantages that the hypoid off-set can produce. Even a very small offset helps to avoid pitting population along the pitch line, as they are known in spiral bevel gears.
