Abstract

In a method and an apparatus for high speed profile grinding of rotatably clamped rotation symmetrical workpieces, a grinding disk of an essentially flat surface line is being guided against the surface of the workpiece so that during the grinding process, the grinding disk touches the circumference of the workpiece in the region of the finished diameter only at a point which lies perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the workpiece, whereby the surface line of the grinding disk forms a clearance angle with the circumferential line of the ground surface of the workpiece.
