Abstract
A grinding worm ( ) is dressed with a dressing wheel ( ), which is moved along the worm path ( ) during rotation of the grinding worm ( ). The grinding worm as well as the dressing wheel are coupled with rotary encoders ( ) and with a servomotor ( ) each. The rotation angle of the dressing wheel is coupled by a program with the rotation angle of the grinding worm within the NC control system. Thereby the grinding pattern may be shaped on the tooth flanks ( ) of the ground workpiece ( ) in such a manner that the ground toothed wheel has an optimum (smooth) running quality.
