In machining processes, grinding is often chosen as the final machining method. Grinding is often chosen as the final machining method. This process has many advantages such as high precision and low surface roughness. It depends on many parameters including grinding parameters, dressing parameters and lubrication conditions. In grinding, the surface roughness of a workpiece has a significant influence on quality of the part. This paper presents a study of the grinding surface roughness predictions of workpieces. Based on the previous studies, the study built a relationship between the abrasive grain tip radius and the Standard marking systems of the grinding wheel for conventional and superabrasive grinding wheels (diamond and CBN abrasive). Based on this, the grinding surface roughness was predicted. The proposed model was verified by comparing the predicted and experimental results. Appling the research results, the surface roughness when grinding three types of steel D3, A295M and SAE 420 with Al2O3 and CBN grinding wheels were predicted. The predicted surface roughness values were close to the experimental values, the average deviation between predictive results and experimental results is 15.11 % for the use of Al2O3 grinding wheels and 24.29 % for the case of using CBN grinding wheels. The results of the comparison between the predicted model and the experiment show that the method of surface roughness presented in this study can be used to predict surface roughness in each specific case. The proposed model was verified by comparing the predicted and measured results of surface hardness. This model can be used to predict the surface hardness when surface grinding

This paper deals with cutting ability of progressive Norton Quantum grinding wheel during grinding roll bearing steel 100Cr6 of hardness 61 HRC. Cutting ability of this wheel is compared with conventional grinding wheel and based on measurement of grinding forces as well as surface roughness. Results of experiments show that Norton Quantum grinding wheels are capable of long term grinding cycles at high removal rates without unacceptable occurrence of grinding chatter and surface burn whereas application of conventional wheel can produce excessive vibration and remarkable temper colouring of ground surface. Moreover, while Norton Quantum grinding wheel gives nearly constant grinding forces and surface roughness within ground length at higher removal rates, conventional grinding wheel (as that reported in this study) does not.

This study addresses the wet grinding of large stainless steel sheets, because it is difficult to subject them to dry grinding. Because stainless steel has a low thermal conductivity and a high coefficient of thermal expansion, it easily causes grinding burn and thermal deformation while dry grinding on the wheel without applying a cooling effect. Therefore, wet grinding is a better alternative. In this study, we made several types of grinding wheels, performed the wet grinding of stainless steel sheets, and identified the wheels most suitable for the process. As such, this study developed a special accessory that could be attached to a wet grinding workpiece. The attachment can maintain constant pressure, rotational speed, and supply grinding fluid during work. A set of experiments was conducted to see how some grinding wheels subjected to some grinding conditions affected the surface roughness of a workpiece made of a stainless steel sheet (SUS 304, according to Japanese Industrial Standards: JIS). It was found that the roughness of the sheet could be minimized when a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) grinding wheel was used as the grinding wheel and tap water was used as the grinding fluid at an attachment pressure of 0.2 MPa and a rotational speed of 150 rpm. It was shown that a surface roughness of up to 0.3 μm in terms of the arithmetic average height could be achieved if the above conditions were satisfied during wet grinding. The final surface roughness was 0.03 μm after finish polishing by buffing. Since the wet grinding of steel has yet to be studied in detail, this article will serve as a valuable reference.

Grinding, a technique for removing abrasive materials, is a chip-removal process that uses an individual abrasive grain as the cutting tool. Abrasive material removal processes can be very challenging owing to the high power requirements and the resulting high temperatures, especially at the workpiece-wheel interface. This paper presents a novel system that uses graphite particles impregnated in an aluminum oxide matrix to form a grinding wheel. This study specifically investigated grinding wheels with a graphite content of 0.5 wt%. The new grinding wheel was compared with conventional grinding wheels by comparing the factors of grinding performance, such as surface roughness, morphology, wheel wear ratio, grinding temperature, and grinding forces, when the wheels were used under two different coolant strategiesdry and with minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) using pure water. This study found that there is a considerable improvement in the grinding performance using graphite-impregnated grinding wheels over the performance obtained using conventional grinding wheels. The use of 0.5 wt% graphite provided better surface roughness and topography, lower grinding temperature, and decreased force; in addition, wheel consumption was lower, resulting in extended wheel life.

Structuring of the grinding wheels is a promising method to reduce the forces involved in grinding, especially during dry grinding. In this paper, one of the methods of grinding wheel structuring is presented. The structuring process was modeled to find the corresponding dressing parameters for the desired structure dimensions. The cylindrical grinding operation with the structured wheels was simulated to produce a spiral free ground surface. Afterwards, the dry grinding experiments with the structured and non-structured wheels were carried out to evaluate the efficiency of the structured wheels. The results revealed that the grinding forces can be reduced by more than 50% when the grinding wheels are structured, while the surface roughness values increase by 80%.

Metal bonded diamond grinding wheels are widely used in the grinding process, especial in ELID grinding. However, truing is difficult owing to the high toughness of metal bond materials and high hardness of diamond abrasives. To realize high precision and high-efficiency truing, we propose a new micro-truing method consisting of electro-discharge truing and electrolysis-assisted mechanical truing in this paper. The process principle and fundamental experimental results are introduced, and the truing performance is discussed. Research results show that the proposed new method is effective for truing metal bonded diamond grinding wheels.

Mill-grinding experiments were carried out on SiCp/Al to investigate effects of mill-grinding parameters and grinding wheel parameters on machined surface roughness in this paper. The machined surface topography was also analyzed. Experimental results show that surface roughness increases with increasing feed rate and the depth of the mill-grinding. The effect of mill-grinding speed on surface roughness is low. The machined surface reveals many defects. The fine grit diamond grinding wheel can reduce the surface roughness and decrease the machined surface defect. Compared to the vitrified bonded diamond and electroplated diamond grinding wheels used in the experiment, the resin-based diamond grinding wheel produces a better surface.

This study was carried out to investigate the surface roughness in infeed centerless grinding process. The experiment was performed to determine the influence of several technological parameters on the surface roughness. The grinding wheel of Hai Duong Company, Vietnam, was used to machine the SCM435 steel. The experimental matrix was designed using central composite design (CCD). The machining parameters that were used as the input parameters in this study include the workpiece center height, dressing feed rate, regulating wheel velocity, and infeed rate. From the experimental data, an initial model of the surface roughness was built as a quadratic function. Further, a Box-Cox transformation was used to develop a new model from the initial surface roughness data with better accuracy than that of the initial model. The accuracy of the proposed model was verified by comparing the values of the mean absolute error, mean square error, and determination coefficients. This direct approach can be applied for the investigation of other factors during machining processes and can be used in the optimization of machining processes.

Introduction. The quality parameters of products, which determine its performance and functionality, are finally formed in the finishing operations, which include the internal grinding process. In this case, the removal of material from the rough surface of the workpiece occurs due to the presence of several simultaneously running random processes of shaping, occurring during the contact of the grinding wheel and the workpiece. A probabilistic theoretical approach is used to simulate grinding operations. However, for determination of radial material removal and thickness of layer with current roughness, the known models cannot be used, as it does not allow taking into account specific features of machining products made of brittle non-metallic materials. Purpose of the work. Creation of a new theoretical and probabilistic model allowing to calculate radial material removal and layer thickness, in which current roughness is distributed during grinding of brittle non-metallic materials. The aim is to investigate the regularities of brittle non-metallic material particles removal by radial removal and study the current (for the moment) roughness formed after every radial removal in the contact area. In the work, radial material removal and the layer with current roughness are determined by grinding modes, tool surface condition, workpiece and wheel dimensions, and the initial condition of the machined surface after the previous contact. The research methods are mathematical and physical simulation using basic probability theory, distribution laws of random variables, as well as the theory of cutting and the theory of deformable solids. Results and discussion. The developed mathematical models make it possible to trace the dimensions and shape of the contact zone when grinding holes in billets made of silicon, which are somewhat different from those known when machining billets made of metal. The proposed dependencies show that with an increase in the depth of micro-cutting, the radial material removal and the thickness of the layer with the current surface roughness increase for all values of wheel speed and workpiece speed. From the experimental values obtained, the maximum micro-cutting depth and the thickness of the layer with current surface roughness are calculated. The thickness of the said layer is compared with the experimental values obtained from the ground surface profilographs. A comparison of the calculated and experimental data indicates its compliance with almost all feed values, which confirms the adequacy of the obtained equations, which model the real process of grinding holes made of brittle non-metallic materials quite well.

When grinding the revolving curved surface with Arc Envelope Grinding Method, the different curvatures in the convex and concave surfaces make a great difference in the surface roughness. In order to solve this problem, the relationship among envelope height, feeding rate, rotational speed and curvature of workpiece was analyzed based on equal-envelope-height grinding method. The results presented that, low feeding rate of grinding wheel and high rotational speed of workpiece were helpful to obtain smaller envelope height. And the smaller the radius of workpiece curvature, the more different the surface roughness. Besides, it was an effective method to solve this problem by changing feeding rate. The feeding rate should be changed directly proportionally to radius of workpiece curvature. Then, the experimental results indicate that, the fluctuation ratio of surface roughness with variable feeding rate is reduced to 4.896% from 26.17% with constant feeding rate. It proves the validity of hypothesis.
