A pressing device (1) for pressing finishing tape against circumferential surfaces (2) of substantially cylindrical work piece sections (3) in a finishing process includes at least one elastically bendable pressing element (5) that is substantially inelastic in the longitudinal direction. A support element (6) has two bearings (7), which are arranged at a distance from each other. The pressing element (5) is fastened to the two bearings, and the two bearings are arranged in such a manner that finishing tape is pressed against a circumferential surface (2) by the pressing element (5) across a contact angle (4) using a pressing force. The pressing device (1) is adjustable in order to process work piece sections (3) of different diameters. The pressing element may be a toothed belt (5) having tooth-like ribs (8), and the toothed belt (5) is interlockingly mounted in the support element (6) using the tooth-like ribs (8).

A belt-finishing device including a frame. A pressing arm is configured to pivotally mount on the frame. A pressing element, which is used to press a finishing belt against a workpiece surface to be treated, is arranged on the pressing arm. The device is provided with a position detection system for detecting a pressing-arm actual position that deviates from a desired position of the pressing arm. A malfunction or defect of the pressing element is detected by means of the pressing arm actual position that deviates from the desired position of the pressing arm.

A device for finish-machining a workpiece in the form of a crankshaft or a camshaft includes a workpiece holder and a rotational drive configured to rotate the workpiece about a workpiece axis. A first finishing tool is configured to machine a main bearing which is concentric with the workpiece axis. A second finishing tool is configured to machine an additional bearing which is radially offset from the workpiece axis. A first tool drive is configured to generate an oscillating movement of the first finishing tool in a direction parallel to the workpiece axis. A second tool drive is configured to generate an oscillating movement of the second finishing tool which is independent of the movement of the first finishing tool in a direction parallel to the workpiece axis.
