Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8800512A1] For grinding directly between tips a moulding blank (18) that must be ground to size at one or several of its cylindrical or conical areas (3, 4) as well as at one of its ends (10) without having to shift it, a U-shaped back rest (23) is used to offset the hollow tip (28) of the tailstock (27) in the direction of the tool headstock (25). The hollow tip (28) is also totally hollowed out and shaped as a lunette, so that part of the moulding blank (18) can pass through it. This part (4; 10) stands then isolated between the tool headstock (25) and the tailstock (27), where it can be shaped by a grinding wheel (29) that can be moved even beyond the intermediate axis (d) of the tip. A shift of the moulding blank (18) can thus be avoided, and it becomes possible to grind the latter to size after a single clamping between tips.
