A machining apparatus is of an in-feed type configured to machine an outer peripheral surface of a rotating tapered roller, and includes a rotating mechanism having a lateral pair of rollers on which the tapered roller is mounted, the rotating mechanism rotating the pair of rollers, and a grinding stone that is brought into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the tapered roller mounted on the pair of rollers. Each roller of the pair of rollers is shaped like a truncated cone. Small-diameter portions of the pair of rollers come into contact with a small-diameter portion of the tapered roller. Large-diameter portions of the pair of rollers come into contact with a large-diameter portion of the tapered roller.

A method and device for simultaneous centreless cylindrical grinding of multiple workpieces (11, 12, 13, 14), at least sections of which are rotationally symmetrical, the workpieces are arranged on a support apparatus (200) one behind the other between at least one grinding wheel (110) and at least one regulating wheel (120), and wherein the axis of rotation of the regulating wheel is inclined with respect to a horizontal plane extending parallel to the workpiece axes of rotation and the grinding wheel axis of rotation by an inclination angle (). During grinding the workpieces are arranged with a height offset relative to each other corresponding to at least a quarter of the inclination angle () of the axis of rotation of the regulating wheel with respect to the parallel plane to render the respective bearing angles () of the workpieces on the inclined regulating wheel consistent.

Provided is an over-positioning grinding method of a hard and brittle pipe fitting with large length-to-diameter ratio, which belongs to the field of grinding technologies. The existing machining method cannot increase the grinding accuracy of the external circles of the hard and brittle pipe fittings nor ensure the coaxiality of the external circles and internal circles of the ground hard and brittle pipe fittings, which leads to inconsistent wall thickness of the ground hard and brittle pipe fittings. In the present disclosure, by using the over-positioning supporting of the rigid mandrel, the support plate and the guide wheel for the hard and brittle pipe fitting in a machining process, the guide wheel is driven to rotate forward to push the hard and brittle pipe fitting with large length-to-diameter ratio into the grinding area, and the guide wheel contacts and drives the hard and brittle pipe fitting while rotating reversely.
