Abstract
A pressing device () for pressing finishing tape against circumferential surfaces () of substantially cylindrical work piece sections () in a finishing process includes at least one elastically bendable pressing element () that is substantially inelastic in the longitudinal direction. A support element () has two bearings (), which are arranged at a distance from each other. The pressing element () is fastened to the two bearings, and the two bearings are arranged in such a manner that finishing tape is pressed against a circumferential surface () by the pressing element () across a contact angle () using a pressing force. The pressing device () is adjustable in order to process work piece sections () of different diameters. The pressing element may be a toothed belt () having tooth-like ribs (), and the toothed belt () is interlockingly mounted in the support element () using the tooth-like ribs ().
