Abstract
A tool drive with spindle shaft for a chip-forming machining includes at least one electromagnetic axial actuator and a control and/or regulation apparatus for the operation of the axial actuator for changing the position of the spindle shaft along the longitudinal axis. The control and/or regulation apparatus is designed to drive the axial actuator for the generation of microvibration movement of the spindle shaft, independently of and superimposable on a feed movement, in order to affect the chip size and chip shape of the removed material. At least one axial magnetic bearing and/or one linear motor is provided as at least part of the axial actuator, hi an operating method for an above-mentioned tool drive with a spindle shaft and an axial magnetic bearing is proposed, wherein an adjustable axial microvibration movement of the spindle shaft is superimposed through at least one electromagnetic axial actuator, independently of a feed, in order to influence the chip size and chip shape of the material removed from holes.
