Abstract

A method of manufacturing a metallic rotor of an eccentric screw pump, comprising clamping a workpiece extending along a central longitudinal axis in a workpiece clamping device and removing material from the workpiece by cutting with a cutting tool. The invention further comprises not producing the surface of the rotor in a three-axis whirling process, using the cutting tool to produce the outer surface geometry of the rotor, advancing the cutting tool along an axis of advance that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rotor, and rotating the cutting tool about an axis of tool rotation that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rotor.
