A real-time model of two-direction grinding force for external plunge grinding process has been built based on the research of grinding system dynamics equation. The two-direction grinding force can be measured on-line by a force cell sensor developed in this paper. And the grinding depth and grinding force, which depend on grinding time, were dynamic simulated by computer simulation. The experimental results are in good agreement with the simulation results, proved the real-time model’s exactitude. The real-time models showed in this paper not only can predict and evaluate grinding behave and quality, but also provide the precondition for grinding optimum, intelligential control, and virtual grinding research etc.

Abstract Conventional controller synthesis relies on a plant model that is not falsified by the open-loop experiments. Alternatively, without any plant model or prejudicial assumptions it is possible to find a set of controllers that are not falsified by the performance specification or the measured data (Safanov and Tsao, 1997). This approach is used to implement a real-time force controller on a reciprocating surface grinder.

In this paper, a multi-level fuzzy control (MLFC) technique is developed and implemented for a creep-feed grinding process. The grinding force is maintained at the maximum allowable level under varying depth of cut, so that the highest metal removal rate is achieved with a good workpiece surface quality. The control rules are generated heuristically without any analytical model of the grinding process. Based on the real-time force measurement, the control parameters are adapted automatically within a stable range. A National Instrument real-time control computer is implemented in an open architecture control system for the grinding machine. Experimental results show that the cycle time has been reduced by up to 25% over those without force control and by 10–20% compared with the conventional fuzzy logic controller, which indicates its effectiveness in improving the productivity of actual manufacturing processes. The effect of grinding wheel wear is also considered in the creep-feed grinding process, where the grinding force/power can be maintained around the specified value by the proposed MLFC controller as the wheel dulls gradually.
