Abstract
The invention relates to a grinding machine for grinding of a gear or of a gear-like workpiece, which has a grinding worm () with a tooth-shaped profile (), which consists at least partly from a dressable abrasive material and which is arranged rotatably on a grinding spindle, so that it can rotate around an axis of rotation (C) during grinding and a dressing device (), with which at least a part of the forming areas () of the grinding worm () can be profiled, wherein the dressing device () has a dressing spindle (), which bears a disk-shaped dressing tool (), so that it can rotate around an axis of rotation (B). To allow a faster dressing of the grinding worm the invention is characterized in that the grinding machine further has a dressing bar () which has a dressing edge (), wherein the form of the dressing edge () corresponds at least partly to the ideal envelope of the grinding worm ().
