  • Patent number: 8790155
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a grinding machine for grinding a workpiece, in particular cams, with a grinding wheel having a profile with a grinding region running substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the grinding wheel and at least one profile section which does not run parallel to the axis of rotation of the grinding wheel, a control unit for controlling the grinding process, wherein the control unit is configured in such a manner that, with reference to position information on positions of edges of the workpiece in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the workpiece, the edges of the workpiece are successively deburred or chamfered by the at least one profile section of the grinding wheel during or after the grinding of the workpiece.

  • Patent number: 8702475
    Abstract: Grinding machine for grinding workpieces, in particular cams, a grinding machine holder and a method for grinding cam sets using such a grinding machine. Grinding machine comprising a machine bed, at least one grinding spindle, two grinding wheel holders, on which in each case at least one grinding wheel is arranged and which are arranged in opposite directions to one another in their orientation and are oriented parallel to one another with their longitudinal axes, and two workholding devices which in each case have a work headstock and a steady rest and which are arranged in opposite directions to one another in their orientation and are oriented parallel to one another with their longitudinal axes, wherein each work headstock and the associated steady rest are designed for the arrangement therebetween of a separate work fixture having workpieces to be ground.

  • Patent number: 8602840
    Abstract: The invention relates to a grinding machine for grinding workpieces, in particular for the simultaneous grinding of two workpieces which are arranged in a tightly adjacent manner. The grinding machine comprises at least two first grinding spindles and at least two second grinding spindles which in each case have a grinding disk receptacle and are mounted pivotably via a support on the spindle block of one of the first grinding spindles, with the result that they can be pivoted about the rotational axis of the respective first grinding spindle.
