Abstract
In a gear tooth flank grinding machine operating on the indexing generating principle, a pair of dished grinding wheels is moved back and forth along the generatrices of involute gear tooth flanks, the grinding stroke being longer than the length of the generatrices by the amount of a supplemental dimension. The effective radius of at least one grinding wheel is measured at least once during the machining of each gear tooth flank and the grinding stroke is reduced in correspondence to the gradual reduction of the measured radius.
