Abstract

A method for monitoring the machine geometry of at least one gear cutting machine (10), having the following steps:

a) measuring a workpiece in a measuring device (20) in order to determine actual data, wherein a workpiece is concerned which was previously machined in the machine (10) on the basis of specification data (VD, ΔVD, MD, ΔMD);b) correlating the actual data with the specification data (VD, ΔVD, MD, ΔMD) in order to thus determine the deviation of a geometric setting of at least one axis of the machine (10);c) storing the deviation of the geometric setting;d) repeating the steps a)-c) after the machining of further workpieces in the machine (10);e) performing a statistical evaluation of several of the stored deviations in order to determine a geometric change in the axis of the machine (10) by considering a predetermined condition and/or rule.
