indexing gear
Me encuentro con este término en el siguiente contexto:
The lathe indexing gear is used to space out the desired number of flutes and to prevent the work from turning while the router travels along its length. A stop block at each end of the wooden bed limits the travel of the router, making all flutes identical in length.
Aguardo su ayuda.
Desde ya muchas gracias.

Pensándolo bien, creo que "mecanismo de indexado" o "mecanismo indexador" serían mejores opciones en este caso.

: Yes, the translation must include a reference to "indexado", which is the method used to divide a circumference into 'n' equal sectors. But I strongly disagree with the ST assertion that the indexing gear should be used to "prevent the work from turning"

engranaje guía
Hola,
Creo que el término más adecuado es "engranaje guía".
Tras traducir el breve contexto dado y analizar el término, me inclino por "engranaje guía", puesto que se trata de dos ruedas que se encajan/engranan, aunque una de ellas es la que sirve de guía para mover los otros elementos del mecanismo.

: You haven't understood the mechanics here (or the improper use of the "indexing gear" to "prevent the work from turning".//Pse see note in discussion box.

Hola Robin, bueno si tu dices que no lo he entendido, 'estoy a cuadros'. Me gustaría que me dieses una respuesta más convincente. Mi respuesta se basa en el libro "507 Mechanical Movements", de Henry T. Brown. Un saludo y buen finde ;-)

Discussion
The ST refers to the cutting of flutes (longitudinal grooves) on a cylindrical workpiece. The flutes are cut with a router while the workpiece is held stationary in a lathe. While the cutting is in progress, only the router is in motion.
The “indexing gears” of the lathe are used only to turn the workpiece into the correct position for cutting each flute. If there are 12 flutes, for example, the indexing gears will be set up to turn the workpiece by exactly 30º between each flute-cutting operation.
I have mentioned that it is “bad practice” to use the indexing gears to "prevent the work from turning". That’s because the indexing gears are precision components designed only to establish the correct angular position of the workpiece; something more robust should be used to block the workpiece (prevent it turning on the lathe) while routing is in progress.
