A device for the fine machining of a circumferential workpiece surface arranged eccentrically relative to an axis of a workpiece. The device comprises a pressure mechanism configured to press a fine-machining tool against the circumferential workpiece surface. The device also includes a drive unit configured to drive an active section of the pressure mechanism via a first drive and a second drive. The first drive drives the active section in a movement plane that runs crosswise to the workpiece axis along a first movement trajectory. The second drive drives the active section along a second movement trajectory that is at an angle to the first movement trajectory.

A method for producing a ready-for-use camshaft for controlling valves of an internal combustion engine may be directed towards camshafts that include a carrier shaft on which an end component, for example, a drive wheel, a phase adjuster, or a part of a phase adjuster, is arranged and cam elements that are attached in a positionally fixed manner to the carrier shaft. In some examples, the method comprises providing a carrier shaft and an end component, joining the end component to the carrier shaft, grinding at least the carrier shaft to form cam seats so as to establish readiness for use, introducing a surface profile into a first cam seat, providing a cam element with ready-for-use characteristics, seating the cam element on the cam seat with the surface profile, and repeating certain steps for additional cam elements.

A high efficiency grinding machine for grinding the pin on a crankshaft has a machining space with a grinding wheel mounted on the lower end of an arm to form a pendulum assembly. A headstock supports the crankshaft in the machining space. A pivot drive rocks the pendulum assembly back and forth equal distances about the equilibrium position causing the grinding wheel to follow the non-circular path of a pin as the crankshaft as it is rotated about its elongated axis.

A finishing device for finish machining of a workpiece, in particular of a crankshaft or a camshaft, comprising a workpiece holder and a rotary drive for rotating the workpiece about the workpiece axis thereof, comprising at least one first finishing tool for machining a main bearing concentric to the workpiece axis and at least one second finishing tool for machining an additional bearing, wherein the finishing tools can be moved along a transport axis which extends via a working area defined by the workpiece holder so that the finishing tools can be moved into an additional area arranged outside the working area.

A combined cam shaft assembling method comprises the following steps: A, grinding the outer diameter of a steel pipe (2) to specified precision, and machining an inner hole of a cam sheet (1) and a signal disc to specified precision; B, pre-installing the cam sheet (1) and the signal disc onto the steel pipe (2) according to a specified sequence, distance and angle; C, utilizing a tension part (3) to penetrate through the steel pipe (2), ensuring the steel pipe (2) to be expanded, so as to fix the cam sheet (1) and the signal disc onto the steel pipe (2) and reach a specified torque. The method is carried out through a combined cam shaft assembling device. By adopting the tension part (3) to expand the steel pipe (2), the steel pipe (2) and the cam sheet (1) can be rapidly combined, the cam sheet (1) and the signal disc can be clamped onto the steel pipe (2) in a more reliable manner, and the strength of the entire cam shaft is relatively high.

In a cam grinding method, a common surface of a first cam and a second cam is acquired in a common surface setting step. In a first common surface grinding step performed after a first cam grinding step, traverse movement of a grinding wheel is performed such that the grinding wheel is aligned with an area from the first cam to the second cam while the first cam and the second cam are rotated, and the common surface is ground. In a second common surface grinding step performed after a second cam grinding step, traverse movement of the grinding wheel is performed such that the grinding wheel is aligned with an area from the second cam to the first cam while the first cam and the second cam are rotated, and the common surface is ground.

A clamping device for manufacturing an assembled camshaft for valve-controlled internal combustion engines, in which at least one cam disc with a base circle region and cam region is machined on the running surface and has a cam-disc recess, includes shrinking the cam disc onto a corresponding shaft designed with a defined dimensional overlap by cooling the shaft and heating the cam disc. Before being shrunk onto the shaft, the at least one cam disc is clamped by the clamping device such that a tension force acts on the recess wall region, the tension force corresponding to a predetermined extent to the state of stresses and/or deformation state of the recess wall region after the operation of shrinking the cam disc onto the corresponding shaft. The running-surface machining of the at least one cam disc occurs when the cam disc is clamped by the clamping device.

A cam grinding method includes: a common base circle portion setting step of obtaining an angular range of a common surface based on first cam lift data of a first cam and second cam lift data of a second cam; a first cam grinding step of grinding the first cam; a second cam grinding step of grinding the second cam; and a common base circle portion traverse grinding step of, after the second cam grinding step, moving a grinding wheel in a traverse direction to perform spark-out of an unground part remaining at the boundary between the first and second cams.
