Abstract In the process of tool presetting for an CNC lead screw grinding, when A-axis rotating and Z-axis shifting synchronously according to the screw pitch length, L, of the lead screw workpiece, the handwheel corresponding to X-axis and Z-axis, respectively, is operated to align the grinding wheel with the middle of the screw groove. Then, the coordinates of Z-axis, A-axis and X-axis of the current position are recorded, and the coordinates of the grinding start position and grinding end position of the lead screw workpiece are calculated accordingly.However, due to the mutual following error of Z-axis and A-axis in the synchronous movement process, tool deviation typically occurs when the grinding wheel moves from the grinding start position to the grinding end position to grind the lead screw workpiece. More specifically, the grinding wheel slightly deviates from the middle of the screw groove to the left or right of the screw groove.To offset this deviation, the root cause for creating the deviation is analyzed, and a method to correct the tool deviation is proposed: First, the CNC system sends out grinding instructions, according to the requirements of grinding process, to make the A-axis and the Z-axis move synchronously. In the meantime, the CNC system measures and records the current coordinates of A-axis and Z-axis, and calculates the tool deviation caused by the mutual following error between Z-axis and A-axis. As a result the grinding start position and the grinding end position are adjusted in light of the value of tool deviation in the subsequent grinding process, so as to address the tool deviation issue.

During cylindrical grinding process, the geometric configuration and size of the edge contact area between the grinding wheel and workpiece have the heavy effects on the workpiece surface integrity. In consideration of the differences between the point grinding and the conventional high speed cylindrical grinding, the geometric and mathematic models of the edge contact area in point grinding were established. Based on the models, the numerical simulation for the edge contact area was performed. By means of the point grinding experiment, the effect mechanism of the edge contact area on the ground surface integrity was investigated. These will offer the applied theoretic foundations for optimizing the point grinding angles, depth of cut, wheel and workpiece speed, geometrical configuration and size of CBN wheel and some other grinding parameters in point grinding process.

Passive grinding is a new rail grinding strategy. In this work, the influence of grinding pressure on the removal behaviors of rail material in passive grinding was investigated by using a self-designed passive grinding simulator. Meanwhile, the surface morphology of the rail and grinding wheel were observed, and the grinding force and temperature were measured during the experiment. Results show that the increase of grinding pressure leads to the rise of rail removal rate, i.e., grinding efficiency, surface roughness, residual stress, grinding force and grinding temperature. Inversely, the enhancement of grinding pressure and grinding force will reduce the grinding ratio, which indicates that service life of grinding wheel decreases. The debris presents dissimilar morphology under different grinding pressure, which reflects the distinction in grinding process. Therefore, for rail passive grinding, the appropriate grinding pressure should be selected to balance the grinding quality and the use of grinding wheel.

Dieser Beitrag zeigt, dass die durch die Abrichtparameter erzeugte Schleifscheibentopographie nicht nur die Oberflächengüte des Werkstücks, sondern auch dessen Eigenspannungszustand in der Werkstückrandzone in weiten Grenzen verändert. Die Untersuchungen zum Abrichten von Korundschleifscheiben mit einer CVD-Diamantformrolle stellen den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Abrichten unterschiedlicher Schleifscheiben zur Bauteilqualität in Form der Oberflächenrautiefe und randzonennahen Eigenspannungen her.   The quality of the workpiece rim is changed by every grinding process. The grinding wheel topography created by the dressing process has not only influence on the workpiece roughness but also on the surface integrity. The pointed research using aluminum oxide abrasive wheels dressed by CVD diamond dressing discs shows a correlation between the dressing parameters, the workpiece roughness and the surface integrity.

AbstractThere has been a great advance in the grinding process by the development of dressing, lubri-refrigeration and other methods. Nevertheless, all of these advances were gained only for continuous cutting; in other words, the ground workpiece profile remains unchanged. Hence, it becomes necessary to study grinding process using intermittent cutting (grooved workpiece – discontinuous cutting), as little or no knowledge and studies have been developed for this purpose, since there is nothing found in formal literature, except for grooved grinding wheels. During the grinding process, heat generated in the cutting zone is extremely high. Therefore, plenty of cutting fluids are essential to cool not only the workpiece but also the grinding wheel, improving the grinding process. In this paper, grinding trials were performed using a conventional aluminum oxide grinding wheel, testing samples made of AISI 4340 steel quenched and tempered with 2, 6, and 12 grooves. The cylindrical plunge grinding was performed by rotating the workpiece on the grinding wheel. This plunge movement was made at three different speeds. From the obtained results, it can be observed that roughness tended to increase for testing sample with the same number of grooves, as rotation speed increased. Roundness error also tended to increase as the speed rotation process got higher for testing the sample with the same number of grooves. Grinding wheel wear enhanced as rotation speed and number of grooves increased. Power consumed by the grinding machine was inversely proportional to the number of grooves. Subsuperficial microhardness had no significant change. Micrographs reveal an optimal machining operation as there was no significant damage on the machined surface.

The thermal boundary condition around the workpiece surface is one of important factors to analyze the thermal deformation of a workpiece, which is in close relation to the machining, accuracy of grinding. The heat dissipation from the workpiece surface which is influenced by the flow pattern, may govern this thermal boundary condition. In consequence, it is necessary to clarify the convection heat transfer coefficient and the flow pattern of air and/or grinding fluid around surroundings of a rotating grinding wheel and of a workpiece. Here experiments were carried out in a surface grinding process to measure the flow velocity, wall pressure and local heat transfer by changing the porosity of the grinding wheel. The air blowing out from the grinding wheel which is effected by the porosity may be considered to have large influences on the local heat transfer coefficient, which is found to be neither symmetric nor uniform over the workpiece surface.

In der Schleiftechnik besteht ein erhebliches Wissensdefizit über den Einfluss der Schleifscheibentopographie auf das Schleifprozessverhalten und die Ausbildung der Bauteilrandzoneneigenschaften. Ziel der Untersuchungen war daher die Identifikation und Analyse quantitativer Kenngrößen zur Beschreibung der geometrischen Schleifscheibentopographieeigenschaften. Diese Kenngrößen ermöglichten fortführend die Modellierung des thermo-mechanischen Belastungskollektivs im Schleifprozess in Abhängigkeit von der Schleifscheibentopographie.   In grinding technology, there is a considerable lack of knowledge about the influence of the grinding wheel topography on the process behaviour and the formation of the component surface zone properties. Therefore, the aim of the investigations was to investigate quantitative parameters for the description of the geometrical topography properties. These parameters enable to model the thermo-mechanical load collective in the grinding process as a function of the grinding wheel topography.
