Werkzeugmaschine mit Exzenterspindel

摘要

The machine tool (2) has a spindle which rotates about a main axis and forms part of a workpiece or tool holder. The spindle can be offset eccentrically in relation to the main axis, with the eccentricity able to occupy any co-ordinates in a plane perpendicular to the main axis. The workpiece holding spindle (23) has a slider (3) to hold the workpiece (1), able to move in an axis perpendicular to the main axis, and a spring (32) between the spindle and slider. The spring's constant is selected so that its pressure is always greater than the centrifugal force exerted by the eccentric slider. The slider is controlled by a rod (40) located in a lengthwise recess (24) of the spindle drive shaft (21), the rod being made from a material with a low thermal expansion coefficient.
