Embodiment Construction

[0029] For producing a hardened shaft-shaped workpiece 2 made of metal, the machine tool 1 has a base frame 3 on which three workpiece holders 4 to 6 and two machining devices 7 , 8 and a hardening device 9 are arranged.

[0030] The first workpiece holder 4 is designed as a workpiece spindle and has a chuck 10 which can be driven in rotation by means of a spindle drive motor 11 about an axis of rotation 12 extending parallel to the x-direction. The workpiece spindle 4 is arranged on the front face 13 of the base frame 3 and is linearly displaceable parallel to the x-direction. For this purpose, on the front face 13 , first x-guides 14 are arranged spaced apart from one another in the y-direction extending perpendicularly to the x-direction, on which guides the workpiece spindle 4 is mounted by means of a first x-slide 15 . The x-slide 15 can be moved linearly along the x-rail 14 by means of a first x-drive motor 16 .

[0031] The second workpiece holder 5 is mounted on the x...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a machine tool (1) for machining and hardening metallic workpieces (2). The workpiece (2), clamped in workpiece holders (4 to 6), is first machined by means of a machining device (7, 8) and subsequently hardened by means of a hardening device (9). The machined workpiece (2) is, for hardening purposes, first heated by means of a heating unit (62) and subsequently quenched by means of a quenching unit (63). The quenching takes place using a cryogenic coolant, such as, for example, liquid or gaseous nitrogen. High machining quality and low machining and cycle times are achieved by machining and hardening the workpiece (2) in a clamp and rapidly quenching the heated workpiece (2).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a machine tool for machining and hardening metal workpieces. Background technique [0002] A machine tool for machining crankshafts is known from DE 197 49 939 C2 (corresponding to US 6 684 500 B1), in which the crankshaft is machined in a holding device and subsequently hardened. For hardening, the crankshaft is heated by means of a laser or an inductor. Disadvantageously, the crankshaft has undesired deformations after cooling, which reduces the machining quality and may require reworking. Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the present invention is to propose a method which enables simple machining and hardening of metal workpieces with a high machining quality. [0004] This object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1 . The workpiece to be machined is machined and hardened in one clamping unit. For hardening, the processed workpiece is heated in a conventional manner and the...
