Sir,
Probably the best method of cutting gears would be to use a GEAR HOB; these are designed to produce the ideal tooth form which has a rolling action. The hobs are expensive but are the optimum solution.
If you were to use CNC for the cutting, you would need a program to generate the proper tooth form. IF you had the Program AND you needed a sample cut, I could cut out a gear or two for you as my CNC router is 3 axis and should do the job OK. If you were satisfied with the end product, then you could go ahead and get your own machine. I do not know of a program to cut gear teeth as I have not looked for one!
Maybe other members know of a gear cutting program and would respond.
Let me know what you'd like to do.
Regards,
