Method for Honing Toothed Wheels

A method for honing processing a toothed wheel in which the toothed wheel and a honing tool mesh with each other and the rotation axes of the toothed wheel and honing tool intersect at an axial intersection angle. The toothed wheel and honing tool carry out a relative movement which oscillates in an axial direction of the rotation axis of the toothed wheel and are positioned in a direction towards each other at the same time in a radial direction with respect to the rotation axis of the toothed wheel starting from an end position in order to remove material from the toothed wheel. During the oscillating relative movement which is directed in an axial direction of the rotation axis of the toothed wheel, the rotation position of the toothed wheel with respect to the rotation axis thereof is changed in accordance with the positioning in a radial direction.
