Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a rotor includes the following operations: the clamping of a workpiece in a grinding machine; the performance of one or more cylindrical grinding operations whereby a rotor shaft section is ground to the desired diameter with a cylindrical grinding disk; the performance of one more profile grinding operations whereby a rotor body is profiled with a profile grinding disk. During the manufacture of the rotor in the grinding machine, the workpiece is not undamped and the cylindrical grinding operations and the profile grinding operations are done with the same grinding machine.

Claim (Index 11):
A grinding machine for manufacturing a screw rotor, the grinding machine comprising:\n a clamping system configured to clamp a workpiece that has already been partially processed to have a shape of a rotor; a grinding spindle; an interchangeable cylindrical grinding disk configured to be affixed and removed from the grinding spindle; an interchangeable profile grinding disk configured to be affixed and removed from the grinding spindle; a switching system configured to enable switching between grinding operations of the grinding machine, including switching between a cylindrical grinding operation with the cylindrical grinding disk and a profile grinding operation with the profile grinding disk; and a control system configured to automatically control the grinding operations to manufacture the rotor; and wherein the same grinding machine is configured to perform both the cylindrical grinding operation and the profile grinding operation by the control system controlling the switching system.
