A method of correcting a track of a cutting edge is provided. With movement of the cutting edge, a point on the cutting edge in contact with the rotation symmetry plane is moved along the cutting edge from a first end portion of the cutting edge to a second end portion of the cutting edge opposite to the first end portion. The correction method includes measuring, by a measurement unit, a shape of the cut and machined rotation symmetry plane, calculating, by an operation unit, an error of the measured shape of the rotation symmetry plane from a target shape of the rotation symmetry plane in a direction of the axial line of rotation, and correcting, by the operation unit, a component in the direction of the axial line of rotation of a track of a point of cutting based on the error.

Method for manufacturing a drilling template (9) and a support piece (3) for positioning this drilling template (9) in relation to the bone of a jaw, wherein a digital model of the dental prosthesis is designed starting from a digital mould such that it can fit to soft tissue of the jaw. According to the invention, a provisional dental prosthesis is manufactured based on the digital model, wherein this provisional dental prosthesis is positioned on the jaw and at least one image of the jaw with the dental prosthesis (1) is generated by means of tomography, wherein a position and orientation for said at least one implant are then selected on the basis of said image.

A spring package for a vibration welding device includes a first longitudinal bar for a fixed connection to a frame of the vibration welding device and a second longitudinal bar parallel to and movable with respect to the first longitudinal bar as well as for connection to a tool. A first axis of the spring package extends halfway between and parallel to the longitudinal axis of the first and second longitudinal bar. A plurality of leaf springs are further provided, each connected with a first end to the first longitudinal bar and with a second end to the second longitudinal bar, wherein a second axis of the spring package extends perpendicular to the first axis as well as, in an inactive state of the spring package, parallel to the plurality of leaf springs so that a spring center line extends, in an inactive state of the spring package, parallel to the second axis in the middle of the leaf spring. Each of the plurality of leaf springs includes a first portion adjacent to the first and/or second longitudinal bar, the first portion consisting of at least one radius so that the first portion is formed concave with respect to the spring center line. The first portion transitions continuously into a second portion which is formed convex with respect to the spring center line, and the second portion transitions continuously into a center portion adjacently arranged relative to the first axis so that a thickness of the respective leaf spring is at the lowest in the center portion, especially at the first axis.

Dual cutting milling tools for removing material from a workpiece include two cutting portions, with one cutting portion being configured for ruled milling, and the other cutting portion being configured for hemstitch milling. In this manner, the number of tool changes for a given manufacturing process may be reduced. Dual cutting milling tools include a first cutting portion and a second cutting portion both formed in a shank, with the first cutting portion being configured to perform hemstitch milling on the workpiece, and the second cutting portion being configured to perform ruled milling on the workpiece. Methods of removing material from a workpiece may include both hemstitch milling the workpiece with the first cutting portion of the dual cutting milling tool and performing ruled milling of the workpiece with the second cutting portion of the dual cutting milling tool, without changing tools in the milling machine.
