Abstract
A method and a device for facing surfaces of workpieces, in particular made of light metal alloys, in which a cutting tool is moved in a feed direction relative to the surface and removes material at a defined thickness by cutting, wherein the cutting tool is moved in a defined feed direction with one or more cutter bars oriented substantially parallel to the surface. The cutter bars are always set at an angle of <90° but >0° with respect to the feed direction. In this way, surfaces with high surface quality can be produced, in particular for workpieces made of light metal, with cost-effective machining parameters.
