  • Publication number: 20240367288
    Abstract: A finishing method for material-removing finishing of a bore in a workpiece on a finishing machine, wherein a finishing tool removes material from the inner surface of the bore in a finishing operation and a shape measurement of the inner surface of the bore is performed on the finishing machine before, during and/or after the finishing operation, the method including introducing a measuring tool into the bore and generating a relative movement between the measuring tool and the workpiece, detecting geometry-relevant measurement values by the measuring tool, and evaluating the measurement values in an evaluation operation to ascertain at least one shape measurement value describes the macro shape of the bore inner surface, wherein the evaluation operation includes: filtering the measurement values generated by the measuring tool using a filter criterion and at least one filter parameter to ascertain filtered measurement values.

  • Patent number: 12005544
    Abstract: In the case of a method for measuring the geometry of a drilled hole in a workpiece, a measuring system is used which has a measuring unit with a measuring mandrel that can be moved bidirectionally along a travel path parallel to a measuring mandrel axis. The measuring mandrel is calibrated at least once with the use of a reference device by way of at least one reference element. During a measuring operation, the reference device is arranged in a neutral location outside the travel path of the measuring mandrel in such a way that the measuring mandrel can be introduced into the drilled hole without dipping through the reference element. To carry out a calibration operation, the reference device is moved out of the neutral location. The measuring mandrel is moved into a calibrating location, where a measurement for calibrating the measuring mandrel is carried out.

  • Patent number: 11389921
    Abstract: A honing machine (100) for honing bores in workpieces has honing spindle (170) which is mounted movably in a spindle housing (130), is rotatable about a spindle axis (172) by means of a rotary drive (150), is drivable in an oscillating manner parallel to the spindle axis by means of a lifting drive and, at a tool-side end, has a device for fastening a honing tool arrangement with an expandable honing tool. Furthermore, an expanding drive for expanding the honing tool is provided, wherein the expanding drive is connected to the spindle housing and is coupled to a feed rod (180) running in the interior of the honing spindle. The honing machine is characterized by a monocoque housing (150), which has a spindle housing portion (150-1), which serves as the spindle housing, for receiving the rotary drive (135), and an expanding system portion (150-2), which is formed integrally with the spindle housing portion, for receiving the expanding drive (155).

  • Publication number: 20210190468
    Abstract: In the case of a measuring method for measuring the geometry of a drilled hole in a workpiece, a measuring system is used which has a measuring unit (110) which, in the state which is set up ready for operation, has a measuring mandrel (120) which can be moved bidirectionally along a travel path parallel to a measuring mandrel axis (125) by means of a linear drive. The measuring mandrel (120) is calibrated at least once with the use of a reference device (200) by way of at least one reference element (230-1, 230-2) of defined internal dimensions, by the measuring mandrel (120) being moved by means of the linear drive into a calibrating location, in which a measuring sensor of the measuring mandrel is arranged in the region of the reference element.
