Abstract
A universal profiling apparatus (10) is provided which has a work engaging member (20) which produces repetitive patterns on a work piece (18). The device includes a frame (12) and a work carrying means (16) mounted thereon, which carries the work piece (18) during the apparatus operation. This work carrying means (16) is rotated about a preselected axis with respect to the table itself. The work engaging member (20) is reciprocated along a preselected path while the work engaging member contacts the work piece. The work carrying means (16) can also be reciprocated. Each of these procedures can be performed manually or automatically. During the automatic mode of operation the movement of the work carrying means (16) and the work engaging member is synchronized for preselected and desired patterns in the work piece. These patterns may be of a one, two or three dimensional configuration.
