Abstract
A measuring process for evaluation of the machining capability or quality of multi-spindle rotary machining or turning unit utilized for the production of preferably rotationally-symmetrical workpieces which are to be finished on both sides, and for the intermediate and/or final evaluation of workpieces which are finished in that manner. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a measuring installation for the implementation of this measuring process. The foregoing objects are inventively achieved in the measuring installation which is independently programmable relative to the multi-spindle rotary machining unit, measures multi-dimensionally and is autonomous in itself, is roughly positioned in front of the applicable workpiece pickup arrangement of the multi-spindle rotary machining unit, and through sensing with measuring feelers of the measuring installation at predetermined reference points, measures in a first step the correctly positioned pickup of the workpiece which is clamped into the workpiece pickup device, and decides with regard whether the turning is to be effected, through providing a signal to the control arrangement of the multi-spindle rotary machining unit, and the workpiece after the effected turning in a second step, so as to decide with regard to its further treatment through a signal transmission to the control arrangement of the multi-spindle rotary machining unit.
