Abstract

Bei einem Verfahren zum maschinellen Polieren von Werkstücken (F) wird das Werkstück in einen mit Schleifmittel gefüllten Behälter (12) eingetaucht und relativ zu dem Schleifmittelbehälter (12) bewegt. Hierbei wird das Werkstück (F) in vertikaler Richtung auf- und abbewegt, um seine eigene Mittelachse (B) gedreht und innerhalb des Behälters mit seiner Mittelachse (B) bewegt.

Figure 00000001
In a method for mechanically polishing workpieces (F), the workpiece is immersed in a container (12) filled with abrasive and moved relative to the abrasive container (12). The workpiece (F) is moved up and down in the vertical direction, rotated about its own central axis (B) and moved with its central axis (B) within the container.
