Abstract
A method of machining a workpiece, which is rotatable about a first axis, by a tool pivotable about a second axis parallel to the first axis and drivable about a third axis perpendicular to the second axis. To allow the circumference of the workpiece to be machined off-center without the necessity of moving the first or the second axis transversely to the plane defined by these two axes, the workpiece and the tool are rotated or pivoted about the first or second axis, respectively, at the same time, in the same direction and at the same angular velocity and, simultaneously the second axis is displaced transversely to the first axis at such a velocity that the equation X.sup.2 =Y.sup.2 +A.sup.2 always applies, wherein X is the distance of the second axis from the first axis, Y is the distance of the first axis from the plane defined by the second and third axes and A is the distance of the second axis from the vertical projection of the first axis onto this plane.
