Estimating the term…
The invention concerns a method to generate and/or machine gear teeth on a workpiece, wherein the workpiece is subjected to a movement from a first location where the workpiece, while being held by a clamping device connected to a workpiece spindle, is brought into machining engagement with a first tool, to a second location where the work piece, while remaining in its clamped condition, is brought into machining engagement with a second tool, wherein prior to performing the movement, the connection between the clamping device and the workpiece spindle is released, and after the movement, the clamping device is connected to another workpiece spindle for the machining engagement with the second tool.
Method of generating and/or machining gear teeth on a workpiece (5), wherein the workpiece is subjected to a movement from a first location where the workpiece, while being held by a clamping device (3) connected to a workpiece spindle (1), is brought into machining engagement with a first tool (7), to a second location where the work piece, while remaining in its clamped condition, is brought into machining engagement with a second tool (8), characterized in that prior to performing the movement, the connection between the clamping device (3) and the workpiece spindle (1) is released, and after the movement, the clamping device (3) is connected to another workpiece spindle (2) for the machining engagement with the second tool (8).
Gear-cutting machine (100) with at least two tools (7, 8) which are arranged in an operating space (20) for the generating and/or machining of gear teeth on a workpiece, and with at least two workpiece spindles (1, 2) serving to support workpieces (5, 6) that are held by respective clamping devices (3, 4) that are capable of rotation so that a first clamped workpiece (5) can be brought into machining engagement with a first tool (7) and, in parallel, a second clamped workpiece (6) can be brought into machining engagement with a second tool (8),
