Abstract
A method and apparatus for carrying out an advancing movement of a tool support rotating about a rotationally symmetric component, and an associated feed device, are described. The tool support is capable of being fed via a leadscrew, is supported on a component, and is driven in rotation as a whole by a stationarily mounted main motor via a main transmission mechanism connected firmly to a support of the tool support.
Claims17
A feed device for a working machine for surface machining of a rotationally symmetric component, comprising:
- a stationarily mounted main motor having a main transmission mechanism;
- at least one tool support receiving a drive movement from the main transmission mechanism and which rotates about the component;
- at least one leadscrew for actuating the at least one tool support;
- a support mounting, on the component, for supporting at least the at least one tool support;
- and
- a support motor having a further transmission mechanism for driving at least the at least one leadscrew,
- wherein a housing of the support motor is mounted rotatably and is coupled mechanically to the main motor, the support motor being capable of being driven synchronously in rotation by the main motor.
