Claim:
Method for the grinding of a profile of a workpiece with a profile grinding machine, comprising: rough grinding the profile which has to be ground with a roughing grinding tool, and finish grinding the rough ground profile with a finishing grinding tool, wherein a stock of the profile which has to be removed is ground successively by the rough and the finish grinding, wherein the roughing grinding tool and the finishing grinding tool are located on an at least one tool spindle either arranged coaxially on a common tool spindle or on two separate tool spindles, wherein a translational movement is created between the grinding tools and the workpiece in a direction of a first axis (x) for carrying out a grinding stroke, wherein the at least one tool spindle or the workpiece is swiveled around an axis (A) of rotation which is directed in the direction of the first axis (x) by a predetermined angle (α) during the execution of the rough grinding or the finish grinding from a basic position (I) into a swivel position (II) in such a way that the grinding tool which is not grinding does not come into contact with the workpiece.
