Patent ID: 8147296

Claim:
Method for the dressing of a grinding tool, which has at least one tooth-shaped profile in an axial section, wherein the tooth-shaped profile has a first flank and a second flank being arranged opposed to the first flank, which form the boundary of the tooth-shaped profile, comprising: using a disk-shaped dressing tool for dressing of the grinding tool, the disk-shaped dressing tool having a first abrasive area and a second abrasive area wherein the dressing tool, having a relative velocity between the abrasive areas and the tooth-shaped profile, is guided relatively to the grinding tool, to shape the flanks, wherein the first abrasive area is assigned to the first flank and the second abrasive area is assigned to the second flank, wherein at least along a part of the height of the tooth-shaped profile the disk-shaped dressing tool is guided in such a way that the first abrasive area contacts the first flank and the second abrasive area contacts the second flank simultaneously, whereto one of or both of the disk-shaped dressing tool and the grinding tool are pivoted relatively to each other around a horizontal axis (A) so that both flanks are dressed simultaneously, wherein the disk-shaped dressing tool rotates around an axis of rotation (B), the grinding tool rotates around an axis of rotation (C), the axis of rotation (B) and the axis of rotation (C) define a plane in the non-pivoted state, the axis (A) is perpendicular to axis of rotation (C) and the axis (A) is contained in the plane.
