Abstract
A dressing apparatus for a dished or plate-shaped grinding wheel of a tooth flank-grinding machine, comprising a dressing carriage or slide which can be radially advanced or fed by means of a radial drive in relation to the grinding wheel. The dressing carriage supports a dressing tool which serves for dressing the outer surface of the grinding wheel and a feeler which serves to scan the active end surface or rim of the grinding wheel. The feeler serves to control the axial advancing or infeed movement of the grinding wheel, and such feeler, during such advancing movement, always moves radially with respect to the grinding wheel. The dressing tool is arranged upon a tool support in off-set relation to the feeler in the peripheral or circumferential direction of the grinding wheel. The tool support is adjustably arranged at the dressing carriage or slide for movement essentially parallel to the active end surface or rim of the grinding wheel and is controlled by an auxiliary or additional drive which is connected with the radial drive.
