Abstract
A device for vibration control in a machine for internal turning uses a cutting tool supported by a tool holder, and has a control unit, a vibration sensor connectible to the control unit, and an actuator connectible to the control unit. The actuator has an active element, which converts an A.C. voltage supplied by the control unit to the actuator into dimensional changes. The active element is adapted to be embedded in the body of the tool holder, and is adapted to be embedded in such a manner that the dimensional changes impart bending to the body of the tool holder. A method for vibration control in internal turning and a tool holder for internal turning are provided.
