Super-high speed point grinding is a new high-speed grinding technology with some excellent machining performances. In such a grinding process, there is a high-speed airflow rotating around the edge of grinding wheel which hinders the grinding fluid from injecting into the contact area and makes the fluid atomization and splash during grinding process, so as to decrease the ratio of effective grinding fluid into contact area and affect the surface integrity of workpiece. In this paper, the structure and properties of grinding fluid jet is analyzed, the velocity distribution field of the round turbulent jet is discussed theoretically and simulated. Based on the pressure balance principle, a mathematical model is established for the jet velocity at the fluid nozzle, which enables the grinding fluid to pass through the high speed airflow and enter into the contact area. According to the analysis of the grinding fluid velocity in the jet core, an engineering formula is given to calculate the position limit of nozzle during grinding process, as well as a practical design example for the high speed grinding machine is presented.

The capacity to minimize vibrations in grinding by the selection of appropriate process parameters is a significant benefit in the process optimization of cam grinding. This paper presents survey methods to characterize and quantify the vibrations and waviness in a camshaft grinding application. First, a modal analysis was conducted to study the dynamic characteristic of a camshaft grinding machine. Then, developed methods were applied to study the influences of various parameters on vibrations in the high-speed grinding of a camshaft. Furthermore, the influence of each grinding process condition on surface waviness in high-speed camshaft grinding was studied. The results show that the vibrations and the surface waviness change with the increase of grinding depth, and an appropriate grinding wheel speed combined with a workpiece speed has, for most grinding conditions, a reducing effect on vibration magnitudes and waviness. Finally, the specific indications about the optimal grinding process parameters in terms of dynamic characteristics of the grinding machine were given, and the speed ratio=1.2 is a novel choice.

In high and super-high speed grinding process, there is an airflow layer with high speed around the circle edge of the grinding wheel that hinders the grinding fluid into contact layer, namely, the air barrier effect. The speed of airflow layer is directly proportional to the square of the wheel speed. Quick-point grinding is a new type of high and super-high speed grinding process with a point contact zone and less grinding power. The edge effect of the air barrier is weakened because the thin CBN wheel is applied in the process. By the analysis of dynamic pressure and velocity distributions in the airflow layer around the wheel edge, the mathematic models of the flow and jet pressure of grinding fluid for effective supply in the process were established and the process of optimization calculation of the jet nozzle diameter for green manufacturing was also analyzed based on the thermodynamics and the technical character of quick-point grinding process. The quick-point grinding experiment for surface integrity influenced by grinding fluid supply parameters was performed.

Lubrication and cooling of a high speed grinding process in the grinding machine as in a mechatronic system using technological liquids are analyzed in this paper. It is shown that in the case of high grinding speed, technological liquids undergo an aeration process and due to this their physical properties change. Reynolds equation, which estimates the aeration liquid, is derived. It is shown, that the application of such an equation is proper only in the finishing of grinding. Experimental research is also presented in the paper, which shows the influence of technological liquids to the temperature field of the grinding machine and to its automatic control.

Ultra-high speed grinding (UHSG) is a significant and promising machining technology in grinding hard-to-cut materials. To find out the aerodynamics of the grinding wheel body when the airflow field has subsonic, transonic, and supersonic speed characteristics and clarify the corresponding influence on the grinding mechanism, the study is conducted to develop a supersonic grinding machine tool that is capable of being operated at extreme wheel speed up to 450 m/s and meanwhile accompanying with high grinding capability. In accordance with the main design objectives, a high performance grinding motorized spindle with maximum rotational speed 36000r/min and maximum power 28kW is developed. The linear motor feed driven system is also exploited to satisfy the requirement of maximum reciprocating speed up to 2m/s. Following plenty of specific design and performance analysis works, a prototype of supersonic grinding machine tool is finally developed. In the end, this paper also puts forward a number of further studies and prospective for the research activities on basis of the developed grinder.

Grinding is a main method of silicon nitride ceramic in finish machining stage. The technical parameters had an important influence on the surface quality of silicon nitride ceramic. The silicon nitride ceramic spindle was ground by the high-speed cylindrical grinder MGKS1432-H. The relations between different speed parameters and surface roughness were researched. The cylindrical and internal high speed grinding experiments of silicon nitride ceramics spindle were carried out. The S-4800 scanning electron microscope was used to explore the roughness change rule of the grinded surface under the condition of only changed grinding wheel’s velocity. In the process of cylindrical and internal grinding on silicon nitride ceramic spindle, the roughness tended to decrease with the linear velocity increasing, and increased with the radial feed speed increasing and decreased with the wheel shaft’s oscillation speed increasing. The result indicated that the linear velocity of grinding wheel influenced the sample’s roughness most. The effect of radial feed speed on the roughness is next only to the effect from linear velocity. The effect of shaft’s oscillation speed on the roughness is the lowest of the three factors. In the process of internal grinding, with the linear velocity increasing, the ceramic material transformed from brittle rupture to plastic deformation and the roughness appeared one peak. These results were very helpful to optimize the grinding parameters and improve grinding efficiency.

Grinding wheel unbalance will result in vibrations of grinding machines and affect the quality and precision of workpieces. Therefore, a balancing system is necessary for grinding machines to lower the vibrations caused by unbalance. In this study, a liquid transfer active balancing system, in which the balancing liquid was forced by compressed air to transfer between opposite chambers, was applied to the high-speed grinding spindle. The requirements of gas pressure and linearity of balancing ability were analyzed to confirm the feasibility of the proposed device. In addition, an active balancing experiment was also carried out efficiently during the operation.
