METHOD FOR CYLINDRICAL GRINDING LONG, THIN ROUND RODS AND CYLINDRICAL GRINDING MACHINE FOR CARRYING OUT THE METHOD HAVING A TRAILING, SELF-CENTERING STEADY REST

摘要

The invention relates to a cylindrical grinding machine, wherein a round rod (3) to be ground by peel-grinding is clamped in the chuck (2) of a workpiece spindle head (1) so that a rotation occurs around the common center axis (4). According to the invention, the round rod (3) is drawn along a stationary mounted, rotating grinding disc (5) in the direction of the directional arrow (16). There is a steady rest (9) together with a measurement head (13) and a pre-deposit prism (10) in fixed lateral allocation to the grinding disc (5). The trailing, self-adjusting and self-centering steady rest ensures that the steady rest jaws (19) always contact the region (3b) of the round rod (3) already ground by the peel-grinding. The pre-deposit prism (10) makes loading of the cylindrical grinding machine easier.
