The invention relates to a tool for machining sliding surfaces of a bearing shell (30), comprising a rotary drive for driving a drilling spindle (20) that can be rotated about a rotational axis and at least one first cutting cartridge that is mounted on the drilling spindle (20) in order to cut the bearing shell (30) to a certain wall thickness by rotating the drilling spindle (20). The tool is characterized in that the first cutting cartridge can be adjusted by an adjustment means in a direction of adjustment that has a component in the radial direction of the drilling spindle, while the drilling spindle (20) is rotated by the rotary drive. The invention further relates to a bearing shell (30) comprising a deliberately structured sliding surface (31) and to a method for producing a bearing shell (30) comprising a deliberately structured sliding surface (31).

1. A drilling tool for machining a bearing shell of a two-piece bearing wherein the bearing shell extends around a bearing shell axis in a circumferential direction between opposite ends, the tool comprising a rotary drive for driving a drilling spindle that is configured to be rotated about a drilling spindle rotational axis and at least one first cutting cartridge that is mounted on said drilling spindle in order to cut the bearing shell to a certain wall thickness by rotating the drilling spindle, wherein the first cutting cartridge is configured to be adjusted in a radial direction relative to the drilling spindle rotational axis, whilst the drilling spindle is rotated by the rotary drive, to profile the sliding surface at least adjacent opposite axial edges of the bearing shell, whereinthe drilling spindle comprises at least one second cutting cartridge and the drilling tool being tiltable relative to the bearing shell axis whilst the drilling spindle is rotated by the rotary drive to cut exposed surfaces in the bearing shell adjacent the opposite ends with the at least one second cutting cartridge, wherein the bearing shell has a reduced wall thickness in areas of the exposed surfaces as compared to the rest of the bearing shell, and wherein the second cutting cartridge lies in front of the first cutting cartridge in a feed direction parallel to the drilling spindle rotational axis. 2. The tool according to claim 1, wherein the two cutting cartridges are mounted opposite one another at 180° on the drilling spindle. 3. The tool according to claim 1, comprising a piezo element for adjusting the first cutting cartridge in the radial direction. 4. A method for machining a bearing shell of a two-piece bearing wherein the bearing shell extends around a bearing shell axis in a circumferential direction between opposite ends using a drilling tool comprising a rotary drive for driving a drilling spindle that is configured to be rotated about a drilling spindle rotational axis and at least one first cutting cartridge that is mounted on said drilling spindle in order to cut the bearing shell to a certain wall thickness by rotating the drilling spindle, the method comprising the steps of: rotating the drilling spindle about the drilling spindle rotational axis,moving the first cutting cartridge in a radial direction relative to the drilling spindle rotational axis whilst the drilling spindle is rotated by the rotary drive to cut profiles into the sliding surface adjacent opposite axial edges of the bearing shell, andtilting the drilling tool relative to the bearing shell axis such that the drilling spindle cuts exposed surfaces into the bearing shell adjacent the opposite ends of the bearing shell with at least one second cutting cartridge that lies in front of the first cutting cartridge in a feed direction parallel to the drilling spindle rotational axis and wherein the bearing shell has a reduced wall thickness in areas of the exposed surfaces as compared to the remainder of the bearing shell. 5. The method according to claim 4, wherein the movement of the first cutting cartridge occurs periodically. 6. The tool according to claim 1, including a piezo element or elements for adjusting both the first and second cartridges in their respective directions of adjustment. 7. The method according to claim 4, wherein the profiles that are cut into the sliding surface adjacent the opposite axial edges of the bearing shell are convex in the axial direction of the bearing shell.
