Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a removal of material on a tooth end edge of a workpiece toothing with a rotationally driven chamfering tool in a machining operation brought about by controlled axial machine movements between the chamfering tool and the likewise rotationally driven workpiece toothing, wherein material is removed with a geometrically undefined cutting edge and the removal takes place in a coordinated action between a profiling, in particular, an alterable profiling, of the chamfering tool and a machine control used for the machining operation, performed in dependence on predetermined parameters that are characteristic of the removal of material to be produced.

A method for producing a chamfer by removal of material on a tooth end edge of a workpiece toothing (W) with a rotationally driven chamfering tool (6a, 6b) in a machining operation brought about by controlled axial machine movements between the chamfering tool and the likewise rotationally driven workpiece toothing,
- characterized in that material is removed with a geometrically undefined cutting edge, and the removal takes place in a coordinated action between a profiling of the chamfering tool and an axial machine control used for the machining operation, performed in dependence on predetermined parameters that are characteristic of the chamfer to be produced,
- wherein the chamfering tool is a first chamfering tool (6a), and the chamfer produced therewith is a first chamfer on a flank of a tooth gap, and wherein a second chamfer, characterized by different parameters is produced on the other flank of the tooth gap with a second chamfering tool (6b) that is different from the first chamfering tool.
