The Relationship

In the grinding process, the grinding wheel surface condition changes depending on the dressing conditions, which affects the ground surface roughness and grinding resistance. Several studies have been reported on the practical application of dressing using prismatic dressers in recent years. However, only a few studies that quantitatively evaluate the effects of differences in dressing conditions using prismatic dresser on the ground surface roughness and grinding resistance have been reported. Thus, this study aims to evaluate quantitatively the effect of the difference in dressing conditions using the prismatic dresser on the ground surface roughness and grinding resistance by focusing on the dressing resistance. In the experiment, dressing is performed by changing the dressing lead and the depth of dressing cut with a prismatic dresser, and the ground surface roughness and grinding resistance are measured. Consequently, by increasing the dressing lead and the depth of dressing cut, the ground surface roughness increased, and the grinding resistance decreased. This phenomenon was caused by the increase in dressing resistance when the dressing lead and the depth of dressing cut were increased, which caused a change in the grinding wheel surface condition. Furthermore, the influence of the difference in dressing conditions using the prismatic dresser on the ground surface roughness and grinding resistance can be quantitatively evaluated by using the dressing resistance.

Truing and dressing are essential processes of grinding wheel preparation. They make the wheel geometry true with respect to its rotational axis and its cutting surface sharp. These factors significantly influence the quality of the final profile and surface produced from the grinding process. Prediction of the optimum wheel surface for grinding, defined as one which produces an accurate profile and cuts most efficiently can greatly minimize the time to optimize grinding wheel performance. This paper describes virtual dressing and truing operations, takes under account vibration of the dressing apparatus and shows how to generate wheel surface replica under different conditions.

Grinding process is a very efficient machining technology because innumerable abrasive grains are fixed on the surface of grinding wheel. Especially, the distribution and shape of cutting edges which directly affect grinding process have a big influence on accuracy. Thus, it is very important to measure a wheel surface topography from a viewpoint of evaluating the wheel life and the performance and a relation between the one and the roughness. In this study, a three-dimensional measurement system of a grinding wheel surface with image processing is developed. In this system, the distribution and height of cutting edges are analyzed because only cutting edges can be selected from among all abrasive grains.

Grinding is a special machining process with large number of parameters influencing each other. Any grinding process involves six basic microscopic wheel-workpiece interaction modes in terms of grain cutting, plowing, and sliding, as well as bond-workpiece friction, chip-workpiece friction, and chipbond friction. And quantification of all the 6 modes immensely enhances understanding and managing of the grinding processes. In this paper, the kinematics simulation is presented to imitate the grinding wheel surface moving against the workpiece under specified grinding conditions. The grinding wheel surface is imported from the fabrication analysis based grinding wheel model of previous work. During each simulation iteration step, it provides the number of contacting grains, contact cross-section area for each grain, and resultant workpiece surface condition. Through retrieving the specific force value from the single grain cutting simulation, the cutting force and plowing force can be calculated. This model can also be potentially used in the time dependent behavior and thermal analysis of grinding processes.

In order to produce ground parts that have desirable surface properties, it is necessary to understand the evolution of these characteristics through the surface generation mechanisms involved in the grinding process. Since the geometry of the wheel surface, in part, determines the final workpiece geometry, the influence of the 3-D structure of a wheel surface on the final workpiece geometry is studied. In this work, a wheel surface model is developed that can be integrated with a surface grinding process model for simulating workpiece surface texture. The simulations utilizing the integrated model are used to study the workpiece surface roughness as a function of the frequency characteristics of the wheel surface. The 2-D Fourier forward and inverse transforms are employed to study and model the 3-D surface structure. In particular, the effect of specific frequency components in the wheel surface on the ground surface are analyzed. It is shown that workpiece surfaces resulting from wheel surfaces with dominant low frequency components have higher roughness, and that the low frequency components indicate a clustering of abrasive grains on the wheel surface.

Abstract In this work, the ability to reshape the grinding wheels with special patterns to produce advanced structured surfaces with several geometries is studied. Firstly, a mathematical model is built for the process relating geometries of the grinding wheel, geometries of wheel patterns, the produced structured surface with the grinding operating parameters. Then, different regular and irregular geometries are designed to be patterned over the wheel surface. Afterward, a simulation method to express the patterned wheels and the structured surface at different working conditions is developed. The effects of the pattern geometries on the obtained structured surfaces are investigated.

In grinding process, the grinding wheel profiles are copied to workpiece surface. Therefore, the finished workpiece surface can be estimated by the grinding wheel surfaces. In this paper, new measuring method of the distribution of cutting edge in grinding wheel surface by two AE sensors is proposed. From experimental results, it is confirmed that the distribution of cutting edges in wheel surface can be measured easily by the proposed method compared to another measuring method.
