1. A method for simultaneously producing at least two back-tapers on teeth of a gearing of a workpiece in a form of a gearwheel using a tool that rotates about a central longitudinal axis,
wherein the tool comprises:
a tool carrier configured in an elongated manner, in a manner of a journal, and oriented coaxial to the central longitudinal axis of the tool; and
at least two blades, which come into engagement with a tooth to be machined, removing chips during use, wherein the at least two blades are held on the tool carrier at a distance from one another in a longitudinal direction of the tool carrier, and wherein a width of each of the at least two blades extends over a partial length of the tool carrier,
wherein a position of at least one of the at least two blades is adjustable in relation to the other of the at least two blades, so as to balance out deformations of the tool carrier that occur during use, and
at least the following work steps are completed to produce the at least two back-tapers,
a) determining a bending deformation and/or a torsion deformation that the tool carrier or a clamp in which the tool is held experiences during production of the at least two back-tapers;
b) adjusting a position of the adjustable blade of the tool with reference to the other blade of the tool taking, into consideration the deformation determined in work step a), in such a manner that the position and a shape of the at least two back-tapers to be produced on the teeth of a gearwheel type meet a required value; and
c) producing the at least two back-tapers on the teeth of the workpiece.
