A method for grinding the toothing or the profile of a workpiece that has an axis of rotation and wherein an allowance is ground away from the surface of the tooth flanks of the toothing or the profile. The method includes the following steps: a) measuring the position of the surface of the tooth flanks of the toothing or the profile, wherein the measuring is carried out in at least two positions of the workpiece, which are arranged offset in the direction of the axis of rotation; b) determining the actually existing allowance of the workpiece that has not yet been ground, based on the measurement values from step a); c) determining at least one grinding parameter so that the material removal per time has a predetermined value or does not exceed a predefined value during grinding; and d) grinding the workpiece with the grinding parameters established in step c).

An apparatus comprising a workpiece spindle for accommodating a gear wheel workpiece, wherein the gear wheel workpiece is rotationally drivable about a workpiece axis of rotation, a first tool spindle for accommodating a first tool, wherein the first tool is rotationally drivable about a first tool axis of rotation, and comprising multiple NC-controllable axes, which are designed to move the first tool in relation to the gear wheel workpiece so that tooth flanks of the gear wheel workpiece can be machined using the first tool, a second tool spindle for accommodating a second tool, wherein the second tool is rotationally drivable about a second tool axis of rotation, a linear carriage, which supports the second tool spindle and comprises an NC-controllable linear drive to be able to linearly displace the linear carriage along a linear guide in relation to the gear wheel workpiece.

The invention relates to a method and a machine tool for hard finishing toothed gearing, particularly internally toothed portions (3), in which method a toothed hard finishing tool (W) which rotates about its axis of rotation is brought into rolling machining engagement with the machined toothed gearing in one pass or in a plurality of passes of differing radial infeed depth under an advance motion with a direction component parallel to the axis of rotation (C) of the machined toothed gearing and under a non-null axis crossing angle, and material is removed from the machined toothed gearing with a tooth flank region (4a) of the machine tool gearing with tooth thickness increasing in the tooth trace direction from the end face (5) facing the machined toothed gearing.

Provided is an internal gear grinding method that makes it possible to grind an internal gear having arc-shaped teeth in a short amount of time. To this end, an internal gear having arc-shaped teeth and a threaded grindstone with a barrel shape having blades with a shape corresponding to the arc shape of the teeth are engaged at a predetermined axis intersection angle, and the internal gear and the threaded grindstone are made to rotate in synchronization with each other so that the tooth surface of the internal gear is ground by the blade surface of the threaded grindstone.
