Abstract

In the continuous generation grinding of a gear the modifications of tooth trace contours and/or corrections of tooth trace deviations determined by flank measurement are specified separately for the left and right flanks (3, 4) of the gear (1). By means of these data, supplementary motions of the NC machine axes across the face width of the left flank (3) and the right flank (4) of the gear (1) are calculated in a control system of a gear flank grinding machine, by means of which a grinding worm produces the specified modified or deviation corrected tooth traces on the left flanks (3) and the right flanks (4) of the gear (1) in one and the same grinding stroke.
