An apparatus for machining flat workpieces has a machine frame including a workpiece support and at least one carrier unit positionable relative to the workpiece support The apparatus has a first and at least a second machining head, each machining head being connected to the carrier unit and each machining head comprising a tool carrier that is mounted rotatably about a first axis perpendicular to the workpiece support and that carries at least one tool that is mounted on the tool carrier eccentrically to the first axis rotatably about a second axis perpendicular to the workpiece support and is connected to a planet wheel that is gear-engaged with a sun wheel that is coaxial to the first axis. The tool carriers of the machining heads are drivable by at least a first drive unit The tool carrier of the first machining head is arranged such that it is movable in a shifting range (V1) along the first axis relative to the carrier unit Further, the tool carrier of the second machining head is arranged such that it is movable in a shifting area (V2) along the first axis relative to the carrier unit

Stored is a height of a grinding mechanism when lower surfaces of grinding stones have come into contact with an upper surface of a wafer held on a holding surface, through lowering of the grinding mechanism from above the wafer. Based on this height, an origin point height which is a height of the grinding mechanism when the lower surfaces of the grinding stones have come into contact with the holding surface is then determined.

A grinding method for grinding a workpiece includes a first grinding step of grinding the workpiece in such a manner that an outer circumferential part of the workpiece becomes thinner than a central part of the workpiece, a measurement step of measuring the thickness of the workpiece at the outer circumferential part, and a second grinding step of grinding the workpiece. In the second grinding step, the grinding is started from the central part of the workpiece and the grinding is ended when the workpiece reaches a finished thickness decided based on the thickness of the workpiece at the outer circumferential part measured in the measurement step.

A glass polishing apparatus includes a jig that holds a glass structure. The glass polishing apparatus includes a first flat portion, a second flat portion opposite to the first flat portion, and a curved portion connecting the first flat portion to the second flat potion The jig and includes a first holding surface holding the first flat portion, a second holding surface disposed opposite to the first holding surface and holding the second flat portion, and a third holding surface connecting the first holding surface to the second holding surface and holding the curved portion. At least a portion of a roller unit having a cylindrical shape is inserted between the first flat portion and the second flat portion.

Provided is a strip edge detection device that can precisely detect an edge of a strip, and that can reduce maintenance labor; and also provided is a brushing apparatus comprising the same.

An edge detection device 7 reciprocates in a width direction of a strip 2, together with brush rolls 3, to detect an edge of the strip 2 in the width direction. The edge detection device 7 comprises a light-emitting portion 8 for emitting light from one side of the front and back surfaces of the strip 2 to the other side; a light-receiving portion 9 for receiving light emitted from the light-emitting portion 8, the light-receiving portion 9 being placed on the opposite side of the light-emitting portion 8 with respect to the strip 2; multiple covers 100 individually covering the light-emitting portion 8 and the light-receiving portion 9; an air injection means 11 for continuously injecting air to the light-emitting portion 8 or the light-receiving portion 9, the air injection means 11 being provided in each cover 100; and a water injection means 12 for injecting water to the light-emitting portion 8 or the light-receiving portion 9 at a predetermined timing, the water injection means 12 being provided in each cover 100.

A fine adjustment thread assembly couples a first part and a second part to each other while keeping the first part and the second part spaced apart, adjusts the distance between the first part and the second part, and detects a load applied to the second part. The assembly includes first external threads that can be brought into threaded engagement with first internal threads formed in the first part, second external threads that are axially spaced from the first external threads, that have a thread pitch different from that of the first internal thread, and that can be brought into threaded engagement with second internal threads formed in the second part. A joint portion between the first external threads and the second external threads houses a load sensor under a compressive load.

A device for grinding a continuously cast product, in particular a slab (11), a billet or a block. The Device has at least one rotationally operated abrasive disk (10), which is attached to a grinding head (15). At least one high-pressure air nozzle (14) is arranged on the grinding head (15). The high-pressure air nozzle blows the continuously cast product free of particles adhering to or lying on the continuously cast product prior to grinding.
