Abstract
A method of machining rotationally symmetrical parts, in particular crankshafts, in particular the bearing surfaces of crankshafts, until they are in a condition of being ready for use, that is to say the condition in which the crankshaft can be installed in an engine without the further removal of material at the bearing surfaces. The object of the invention is to simplify the removal of material when machining bearing locations of a crankshaft. In the method according to the invention for finishing machining rotary parts, in a condition such that they are ready for use, after the original shaping operation removal of material is effected only by cutting machining with a given cutting edge and subsequent finishing.
