The present disclosure relates to an apparatus and to a method for dressing generating grinding tools or profile grinding tools for the gear cutting processing of toothed workpieces using at least two disk-shaped dressing tools with which one or more tool regions and/or profile regions of the tool are provided with a defined dressing geometry.
1. An apparatus for dressing generating grinding tools or profile grinding tools comprising:
a dressing unit having at least two tool receivers for receiving at least two different disk-shaped dressing tools, wherein the tool receivers are arranged such that the dressing tools are individually and/or independently brought into engagement with the grinding tool without mutually influencing one another, wherein at least one of the two tool receivers has a driven pivot axle by which the tool is pivotable about an axis which is at an angle of 10° to 90° toward the tool axis, wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are provided for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools having a different gear tooth geometry, and wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are shaped and positioned for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools for dressing different profile areas of the grinding tool.
2. The apparatus in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the at least two tool receivers are driven independently of one another.
3. The apparatus in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are provided for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools having different diameters.
4. The apparatus in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are shaped and positioned for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools for dressing different grinding tools such as grinding wheels and worm grinding wheels.
5. The apparatus in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are shaped and positioned for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools for carrying out different dressing processes such as shape dressing and profile dressing.
6. A dressable grinding tool for processing workpieces, the grinding tool is processed by at least two dressing tools which are mounted on an apparatus for dressing generating grinding tools or profile grinding tools comprising a dressing unit having at least two tool receivers for receiving at least two disk-shaped dressing tools, wherein the tool receivers are arranged such that the dressing tools are individually brought into engagement with the grinding tool without mutually influencing one another, the at least two dressing tools mounted on the apparatus to provide tool areas and/or profile areas of the tool having a defined dressing geometry, wherein at least one of the two tool receivers has a driven pivot axle by which the tool is pivotable about an axis which is at an angle of 10° to 90° toward the tool axis, wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are provided for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools having a different gear tooth geometry, and wherein the at least two driven tool receivers are shaped and positioned for receiving dressing tools and/or profiling tools for dressing different profile areas of the grinding tool.
7. The dressable grinding tool in accordance with claim 6 , wherein the grinding tool has at least two worm grinding wheels, two grinding wheels or two grinding wheel sets on a common tool carrier.
8. The dressable grinding tool in accordance with claim 6 , wherein the grinding tool has at least one grinding wheel or at least one grinding wheel set and at least one worm grinding wheel.
9. A dressable grinding tool for processing workpieces, the grinding tool is processed by at least two dressing tools which are mounted on an apparatus for dressing generating grinding tools or profile grinding tools comprising a dressing unit having at least two tool receivers for receiving at least two disk-shaped dressing tools, wherein the tool receivers are arranged such that the dressing tools are individually brought into engagement with the grinding tool without mutually influencing one another, the at least two dressing tools mounted on the apparatus to provide tool areas and/or profile areas of the tool having a defined dressing geometry, wherein at least two areas of the grinding tool are present for processing gear tooth arrangements having a different gear tooth geometry, and wherein the grinding tool has at least two worm grinding wheels, two grinding wheels or two grinding wheel sets on a common tool carrier.
