Abstract: A shaving cutter, honing cutter or the like serving as a tool (T) matingly meshing at a crossed-axes angle (.delta.) with the toothed workpiece (W) during a precision working of crowned and/or conical tooth systems guided during a feed movement (V) at an angle (.epsilon.) inclined with respect to the workpiece axis and along same. The feed movement (V) is thereby superposed by an additional movement directed perpendicularly thereto and these two movements are coordinated in such a manner with one another that the working zones of the tool (T) are guided on a curve (55) which lies on a theoretical envelope (50) of the workpiece (W) defining the crown dimensions from one face of the workpiece (W) to the other. The working zones of the tool (T) have thereby at each contact point (K) a tangential contact with the workpiece tooth flanks (2, 3) to be machined.

Abstract: To manufacture grinding members covered with extremely hard abrasive granules, instead of a base member of steel, a commercially available grinding tool of a corresponding shape and size made of a porous ceramic material is used as the base member. The base member is coated with an adhesive at the areas to be covered, the abrasive granules are applied and are pressed into the pores of the ceramic material; finally the adhesive is allowed to harden.

Abstract: A method for the precision working of the tooth flanks of particularly hardened gears (workpiece W) with a gearlike tool, the tooth flanks of which tool have an abrasive surface and which rotates in mesh with the workpiece (W). In order to avoid damage to the tool caused by remaining burrs or the like in the tooth system of the workpiece (W), a twin tool with axially spaced similar tools is utilized, individual ones of the similar tools are used one after the other. The first tool removes thereby first the remaining burrs and the like and the second tool performs thereafter the actual precision working.
