Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011038093A1] A multi-axis computer controlled machine tool for relief grinding of single and multiple start threaded hobs (46). The machine comprises an angular oriented spindle (65) that can be angularly (swivel) positioned thereby providing the flexibility to utilize both cup- shaped grinding wheels (55) and pencil-shaped grinding wheels (52) for grinding of hob and milling cutter relieved tooth geometry without exchanging grinding spindles assemblies or modifying the machine construction to accommodate two types of grinding methods or utilizing an additional machine axis for the spindle re-orientation.
