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.
Claims18
A method for producing a 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 removal of material to be produced.
A device (100) for producing a removal of material on a tooth end edge of a workpiece toothing (W),
- comprising a rotationally driven workpiece spindle for mounting a workpiece bearing the workpiece toothing, a rotationally driven chamfering tool (6a, 6b) that brings about the removal of material in machining operation with the workpiece toothing, and a control device by which controlled axial machine movements bring about the machining operation,
- characterized in that the chamfering tool removes material with a geometrically undefined cutting edge, and has a profiling and the control device operates the axial machine movements performed for the removal of material in a coordinated action with the profiling of the chamfering tool that is performed in accordance with predetermined parameters characterizing the removal of material to be produced.
15:
- The method of claim 1 wherein said profiling comprises an alterable profiling.
