ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus which uses a single cam surface to dress operating surfaces of grinding wheels having different configurations. A grinding wheel having an operating surface with a first configuration is positioned adjacent to the wheel dressing tool. A cam follower is moved along the single cam surface to move the wheel dressing tool to dress the operating surface of the grinding wheel to a first configuration. A second grinding wheel having an operating surface with a second configuration is subsequently positioned adjacent to the dressing tool. A second cam follower having a configuration which is different than the configuration of the first cam follower is positioned to engage the same cam surface as was used during the dressing of the first grinding wheel. Movement of the dressing tool is effected by the inneraction between the second cam follower and the cam surface to move the dressing tool to dress the operating surface of the second grinding wheel to the second configuration.
