Publication number: 20140341669Abstract: To produce toothed sections on workpieces, a machine tool has a machine bed, a pivoting element with at least two workpiece spindles arranged thereon and a tool positioning unit with a tool head. The spindles can be pivoted relative to the machine bed about a workpiece spindle pivot axis and each spindle has a workpiece receiver that can be rotatably driven about a rotational axis. The tool head can be linearly moved in three directions relative to the spindles, and can be pivoted about a tool head pivot axis. A bearing element extending in the direction of the workpiece spindle pivot axis, has a free end which is pivotable about the workpiece spindle pivot axis, and is rigidly arranged on the pivoting element. The reinforcing element is fastened to the machine bed. The pivoting element is reinforced about the workpiece spindle pivot axis by the reinforcing element.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2012Publication date: November 20, 2014Applicant: MAG IAS GMBHInventors: Holger Fleischer, Carlo Schonherr

Patent number: 4811528Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed in which only one working point or machining point on a machining tool, which machining contact with a workpiece such as a gear blank during a machining operation. The position of this single working or machining point can be selectively chosen within a machining region of the grinding wheel or disk and can be prescribed to lie in a zone of fixed or variable radius of the grinding wheel or disk. This is achieved through at least one feed motion, in general a feed motion of the grinding wheel or disc, effected in addition to feed motions known per se in machining processes performed essentially according to the indexing generating method. This means that the machining contact point between the grinding wheel or disk and the gear blank does not wander on the grinding wheel or disk in correspondence with the generating feed motions but can be confined to a predeterminate region.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 1985Date of Patent: March 14, 1989Assignee: Werkzeugmaschinenfabrik Oerlikon-Buhrle AGInventor: Gerd R.

Patent number: 4650378Abstract: Gear teeth of the gear being worked are machined by rotating the gear with a gear-type machining tool moved radially into tangential contact with the gear being worked. The relative of rotation rates of the gear and the tool are determined by the number of gear teeth in both the gear and the tool. The tooth width of the gear-type machining tool, which may be a worm gear, is less than the finished measurement of the tooth space of the gear being worked. When the gear-type tool reaches the prescribed manufacturing center distance, it is contiguous with the gear from one frontal face to the other. Two flanks of the gear are machined by feeding either the gear or tool in a direction perpendicular to the radial direction of movement so that the teeth of the tool can machine the gear tooth flanks as the gear and the tool rotate. First one flank of each tooth of the gear may be machined and then, by reversing the movement direction, the other flank of the tooth is machined.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 1985Date of Patent: March 17, 1987Assignee: Reishauer AGInventor: Ernst Zubler
