The present invention relates to a machining center having an associated pallet store and pallet handling system, wherein the machining system is separated from the pallet store by means of a travel path on which the pallet handling device can be moved for the transfer of the pallets, with the travel route being able to be bridged via a part serving as a platform to enable access to the machining center.

Machining center having an associated pallet store and pallet handling system

The invention relates to a method of inspecting gears during their manufacture in the gear cutting machine, wherein the respective workpiece is traveled to by the tool at specific reference points to determine any deviations. The setting of the tool can be corrected by means of these deviations via a control loop.

Method of inspecting gears during their manufacture

During operation of a gear shaping machine comprising a thrust spindle which accommodates a cutting wheel and is guided and disposed in a guidance on the machine housing, the radial force acting on the cutting wheel during operation is detected by means of at least one sensor disposed in the area of the guidance, which detects the changes of the radial force occurring during operational wear of the cutting wheel and uses increases of the radial force, beyond the tolerance typical for this machine, as a signal for influencing the operation of the gear shaping machine, e.g. for stopping the machine.
