Abstract

In the SFB570, several sub‐processes of the standard process chain for manufacturing bearing rings have been modified in order to compensate distortion. This paper presents control strategies that enable a precise deployment of the compensation potential, on a local (sub‐process) level as well as along the process chain. Two different control strategies for local compensation are demonstrated at the example of the cutting and the gas quenching processes. Furthermore, a concept for a process‐wide compensation of distortion is presented.
