Zusammenfassung:A method of grinding or turning a workpiece, such as a bearing workpiece, involves several steps. One step includes locating the bearing workpiece on a chuck with an axis of rotation of the chuck positioned off-center relative to an axis of the bearing workpiece. Another step includes determining an offset between the chuck's axis of rotation and the bearing workpiece's axis based on the off-center position between the chuck's axis of rotation and the bearing workpiece's axis. Yet another step includes determining a path of engagement of a grinding wheel relative to the bearing workpiece based on the offset previously determined between the chuck's axis of rotation and the bearing workpiece's axis.
