Material Removal Model

This article explores the effects of parameters such as cutting speed, force, polymer wheel hardness, feed, and grit size in the abrasive belt grinding process to model material removal. The process has high uncertainty during the interaction between the abrasives and the underneath surface, therefore the theoretical material removal models developed in belt grinding involve assumptions. A conclusive material removal model can be developed in such a dynamic process involving multiple parameters using statistical regression techniques. Six different regression modelling methodologies, namely multiple linear regression, stepwise regression, artificial neural network (ANN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), support vector regression (SVR) and random forests (RF) have been applied to the experimental data determined using the Taguchi design of experiments (DoE). The results obtained by the six models have been assessed and compared. All five models, except multiple linear regression, demonstrated a relatively low prediction error. Regarding the influence of the examined belt grinding parameters on the material removal, inference from some statistical models shows that the grit size has the most substantial effect. The proposed regression models can likely be applied for achieving desired material removal by defining process parameter levels without the need to conduct physical belt grinding experiments.

Abstract Contact calculation is of great importance in predicting the material removal (MR) of flexible grinding process (FGP). The contact is mostly considered approximately constant in the existing MR models, while the situations that contact varies a lot after FGP are ignored. Therefore, a novel model is proposed in this paper to take those situations into consideration. Firstly, the nonconstant-contact situation is introduced. Then an equivalent method is developed to convert the nonconstant-contact grinding process into the accumulation of several quasi-constant-contact grinding processes. Based on the equivalent method, a MR model is established, and the procedure to obtain the model parameters by the finite element analysis (FEA) is introduced. In the end, the equivalent method and the MR model are tested by a series experiments of different process parameters. Results show that the proposed MR model can predict the material removal effectively for the nonconstant-contact situations.

Mechanical Decoupling

In the abrasive belt grinding process, there are factors affecting the machining stability, efficiency, and quality. Based on the analysis of the grinding process, the normal force in the contact area between the abrasive belt and the workpiece is a major factor. By comparing constant force and non-constant force grinding, the results imply that keeping the grinding force constant will achieve desired material removal and better surface quality. The phenomenon of over- and under-cutting of the workpieces can also be avoided by a constant normal force. In this article, a controllable and flexible belt grinding mechanism accompanied with a mechanical decoupling control strategy is built and tested. Afterward, a detailed comparison is made between the traditional force-position coupling system and the proposed decoupling control system. The proposed control system suppresses the interference between the position and force control systems. The contact force is directly measured and controlled without detecting the position of other components in the tool system. The complexity of the control system is thereby reduced. Finally, several grinding experiments are carried out. The standard deviation and coefficient of variation of the measured normal force are kept within 0.25 and 0.02, respectively. The experiment results reveal that the mechanical decoupling system performs well in force control compared with the traditional force-position coupling system. In addition, the surface roughness Ra < 0.4 μm, the surface quality of the workpiece is improved significantly with the constant force controller.
