Abstract
A method of grinding the tooth slots of a workpiece with a freshly dressed grinding wheel wherein dual-machining of tooth slots is eliminated. The method comprises grinding the first few slots of a gear at a corrected depth amount which accounts for the rapid wear and other conditions of the freshly dressed grinding wheel wherein for a first number of tooth slots (e.g. 1, 2, 3 or more), the grinding wheel is fed-in relative to the workpiece by the corrected depth amount.
