  • Patent number: 10906151
    Abstract: A method of correcting a track of a cutting edge is provided. With movement of the cutting edge, a point on the cutting edge in contact with the rotation symmetry plane is moved along the cutting edge from a first end portion of the cutting edge to a second end portion of the cutting edge opposite to the first end portion. The correction method includes measuring, by a measurement unit, a shape of the cut and machined rotation symmetry plane, calculating, by an operation unit, an error of the measured shape of the rotation symmetry plane from a target shape of the rotation symmetry plane in a direction of the axial line of rotation, and correcting, by the operation unit, a component in the direction of the axial line of rotation of a track of a point of cutting based on the error.
