Single-layered metal bond diamond wheels are useful to high efficient grinding of difficult-to-grind materials because of the high gripping force of abrasive grains and the controllable grain density. In this paper, fundamental information are obtained for an application of electrostatic force to setting of diamond grains into pasted metal bond slurry layer on wheel surface, investigating experimentally jumping phenomenon of diamond grains in an electrostatic field between a electrode plate and metal bond slurry layer. The SD grains and the SDC grains coated with Ti are selected. SDC grains jump into a metal bond layer as quick as making an electrostatic field, however SD grains jump with short time lags. The setting rate of SDC grains is larger than that of SD grains, and setting position accuracy of SDC grain array is better than SD grain array. The possibility of setting abrasive grains into single-layered metal bond diamond wheel surface using electrostatic force is obtained and SDC grains are suitable to the proposed abrasive setting method.

In this paper we analyze the forming mechanism of composite abrasive grains in oxide film on ELID grinding wheel surface, By using composition information and by taking advantage of microscale structure, we have investigated that abrasive grains surface is covered by a layer of oxide film and the fresh oxide film is loose and porous like turtle shaped crack when crushed and dried. The elements of oxide film consist of α-Fe2O3 with sphere grain of 5-50nm. This phenomena is demonstrated that the composite abrasive grains in oxide film is a compound structure which is centered by abrasive grains, with α-Fe2O3,Fe (OH)3 surrounded.

In dry grinding of hard carbon parts, the grinding performance of wheel is remarkably lost by carbon chips loading on wheel surface. The deterioration in grinding performance of wheel affects the grinding accuracy and efficiency. Generally, the grinding performance of loading wheel recovers by dressing. However, the dressing is not suitable from a viewpoint of the wheel life and the production cost because many abrasive grains having sharp edges under loading carbon chips on wheel surfaces are lost by dressing. In this study, we propose the application of dry ice blasting as a removal method of loading carbon chips. The dry ice is little influence on the working environment because of the quick sublimation of dry ice particles to carbon dioxide. In addition, the dry ice blasting might be suitable for the chip removal method because the dry ice doesn’t remain on wheel surfaces after blasting without the damage of wheel surfaces. The dry ice blasting tests of resinoid bond diamond wheel surface with no grinding performance by loading carbon chips are carried out, and the effects of dry ice blasting on removal of loading carbon chips are investigated, analyzing the protrusion height of abrasive grains, the impact pressure in the dry ice blasting and so on.

Relative motion of single abrasive is analyzed for the different applied directions of longitudinal ultrasonic vibration, and its locus is simulated in the present paper. The research results show that the locus in two-dimensional ultrasonic vibration is only similar to that in y-direction, and both are close to sinusoid curves. The width of grooves scratched by abrasive grains y-direction (axial direction of grinding wheel) is two times of the vibration amplitude, and the material removal rate increases remarkably. In case of x-direction (tangential direction of grinding wheel) ultrasonic vibration, abrasive grains with periodic force impact material surface with high frequency vibration, which make material fracture removal easy. Therefore, the high efficiency essence of material removal in two-dimensional ultrasonic grinding is revealed in view of locus. In addition, according to the results of grinding experiments, under same conditions good surface quality can be obtained in two-dimensional ultrasonic grinding and material removal rate in common grinding is the lowest. Consequently it is further proved that the method of two-dimensional ultrasonic vibration grinding is an effective one for ceramic materials.

An investigation is reported on the thermal aspects of grinding with single layer electroplated CBN wheels. The topography of these wheels is not periodically restored by dressing or truing, so the grinding behavior progressively changes as the wheel wears down. Straight surface grinding experiments were conducted to determine the effect of wheel wear and fluid flow on the grinding temperatures and energy partition. Low energy partition values of 3%–8% were obtained at temperatures below the fluid burnout limit. The energy partition results were analyzed in terms of a topographical analysis of the wheel surface and a thermal model which accounts for the removal of heat at the grinding zone by conduction to the abrasive grains and to the grinding fluid.

The grinding performance of wheel remarkably decreases by the loading of wheel surface in dry grinding of hard carbon parts. In this report, we propose the removal method of loaded carbon chips in which an adhesive tape is removed with carbon chips after putting on a loaded wheel surface by an elastic roller with the setting load . The removal characteristics are experimentally investigated by analyzing the projecting height of abrasive grains, removal force of adhesive tape and so on. The removal method results in the enough projecting height of abrasive grain.

This research investigates the nonwoven wheels polishing of Ti-6Al-4V and Co-Cr-Mo alloys, which are biocompatible materials for medical implants. The structure of the high porosity nonwoven wheels consisting of the nonwoven fibers and abrasive grains are characterized. The compressibility and stiffness of the wheel are measured. The stiffness of the wheel is nonlinear depending on the wheel surface speed and compression depth. Polishing tests at two levels of wheel surface speed and compression depth are conducted. Surface roughness and polishing forces are studied. Results demonstrated that polishing of Ti-6Al-4V is difficult, which has twice larger surface roughness than that of Co-Cr-Mo. The nonwoven wheel operating at lower surface speed and smaller compression depth is beneficial to generate a better surface roughness for Ti-6Al-4V and Co-Cr-Mo.

The purpose of this study is to make clear the machining effect of the precision abrasive machining using the cavitation in reversing suction flow, which can easily finish to a fine surface by a simple apparatus. The machining fluid including loose micro abrasive grains is sucked by a pump, and the cavitation occurs ahead of the nozzle fixed in the suction chamber because of the rapid decrease of pressure of machining fluid. We use the cavitation impact to make the abrasive grains to interfere with the workpiece surface. In this report, the possibility of application of the new abrasive machining to the precision manufacturing is investigated by analyzing the behavior of machining fluid, the stock removal and the surface finish in machining of glass. The cavitation impact is strongest under the nozzle clearance of 20mm and restriction nozzle diameter of 4mm. Glass surface is finished up to several nanometers in Ry with slight stock removal by the proposed abrasive machining.

In dry grinding of hard carbon parts, the loading by carbon chips on wheel surface occurs in early grinding process, and the grinding performance of wheel is extremely declined. The deterioration affects the grinding accuracy and efficiency. Therefore, loading is one of the problems that must be resolved for high efficiency and high quality grinding of carbon. Generally, the grinding performance of wheel is recovered by the dressing. However, it’s not suitable from a viewpoint of the wheel life and the production cost because available abrasive grains possessing sharp edges under loading carbon chips on wheel surface are lost by dressing. In this study, we propose the dry ice blasting for removing loading carbon chips on wheel surface. The dry ice particles impact on pressed carbon chips with high pressure and sublimate to carbon dioxide quickly. Therefore, it is little influence on working environment because the dry ice doesn’t remain on wheel surfaces after blasting without the damage. In this report, we carry out the blasting tests of resinoid bond diamond wheel surface without grinding performance by loading carbon chips, and analyzed the effect of nozzle processing speed and nozzle feed pitch on recovering abrasive protrusion. The effective dry ice blasting conditions are investigated for high efficiency removal of loading carbon chips, analyzing the protrusion height of abrasive grains.

Grinding process is a very efficient machining technology because innumerable abrasive grains are fixed on the surface of grinding wheel. Especially, the distribution and shape of cutting edges which directly affect grinding process have a big influence on accuracy. Thus, it is very important to measure a wheel surface topography from a viewpoint of evaluating the wheel life and the performance and a relation between the one and the roughness. In this study, a three-dimensional measurement system of a grinding wheel surface with image processing is developed. In this system, the distribution and height of cutting edges are analyzed because only cutting edges can be selected from among all abrasive grains.
