Analysis of the Cutting Abilities of the Multilayer Grinding Wheels—Case of Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Grinding

This paper presents an effectiveness analysis of the grinding process with the use of a new multi-layer abrasive tool. The designed abrasive tool consists of external layers with a conventional structure, whose task is to decrease the grinding wheel load and ensure high grinding volumetric efficiency. The inner layer of the grinding wheel contains a 30% addition of abrasive aggregates. The task of the inner layer is to provide lower roughness of the machined surface. The aim of the research presented in this paper was to evaluate the topography of the designed abrasive tool and to analyze the middle layer properties influencing the machined surface roughness. The differentiation of the active surface features of the abrasive tool was determined for the conventional layer and the layer with the addition of abrasive aggregates. The machining potential of the layers was also determined using the Shos parameter. The surface topography of Ti-6Al-4V alloys ground with the use of a multi-layer wheel and a conventional grinding wheel was analyzed. With the application of the bootstrap hypothesis, the set of roughness parameters differentiating the topography of ground surfaces was determined.

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.

YL10.2 and YF06 are ultrafine-grained cemented carbides, and grinding experiments were carried out with resin-bonded diamond grinding wheel. Based on measured grinding force, surface roughness and SEM topography, experimental results were analyzed; grinding forces and depth of grinding approach linear correlation; and the grinding force of YF06 is greater than that of YL10.2 in rough grinding, but the grinding force increases significantly if depth of cut is greater than a certain value in finish grinding. The trend of machined surface roughness looks like “V” type with the increasing of depth of cut; the material removal behavior of ultrafine-grained cemented carbides in grinding was observed; the ploughing and fragmentation exist simultaneously on the ground surface, and the dominated material removal behavior depends on the grinding parameters or chemical composition of workpiece.

Turning cutting tool with large length–diameter ratio has been essential when machining structural part with deep cavity and in-depth hole features. However, chatter vibration is apt to occur with the increase of tool overhang. A slender turning cutting tool with a length–diameter ratio of 7 is developed by using a vibration absorber equipped with piezoelectric ceramic. The vibration absorber has dual functions of vibration transfer to the absorber mass and vibration conversion to the electrical energy via the piezoelectric effect. Equations of motion are established considering the dual damping from the piezoelectric ceramic and rubber gasket. The equivalent damping of piezoelectric ceramic is derived, and the geometries are optimized to achieve optimal vibration suppression. The modal analysis demonstrates that the cutting tool with the vibration absorber can reach 80.1% magnitude reduction. Machining tests are carried out in the end. The machining acceleration and machined surface roughness validate the vibration suppression of the VA, and the output voltage by the piezoelectric ceramic demonstrates the ability of vibration sensing.
