Usually, the contact stiffness between a grinding wheel and a workpiece has been measured in a stationary state. So, in this study, the contact stiffness under the grinding operation is measured under different table feed rate of the workpiece. From this result, it is known that, while the contact stiffness in the stationary state increases with the increase of the contact force, the contact stiffness under the grinding operation decreases with the increase of the normal grinding force relating the table feed rate. In this paper, since the number of contacting abrasive grain with workpiece is constant irrespective of the table feed rate, and the residual stock removal of workpiece is varied by the table feed rate, it is clarified that the contact stiffness under the grinding operation differs from the contact stiffness measured by the stationary state.

In the grinding operation, grinding wheels are deformed by grinding forces, so that residual stock removal of the workpiece takes place. Since this residual stock removal of the workpiece causes low machining efficiency and deterioration of machining accuracy, high hardness grinding wheels may be selected in order to obtain high machining efficiency and/or high quality machining accuracy. On the other hand, when grinding operations used by low hardness grinding wheels are carried out, it is well known that ground surface roughness is smaller than in case of higher hardness grinding wheels. From such a viewpoint, this study aims to investigate experimentally the effect of the contact stiffness of grinding wheel on the ground surface roughness and the residual stock removal of the workpiece. Grinding operations were carried out using three grinding wheels which are different hardness type, and ground surface roughness and residual stock removal of the workpiece were measured. The contact stiffness of grinding wheel was calculated by a support stiffness of single abrasive grain and a contact area between grinding wheel and workpiece. Comparing the contact stiffness of grinding wheel with the ground surface roughness and the residual stock removal of the workpiece, it was known that ground surface roughness increases and residual stock removal of workpiece decreases with increaseing the contact stiffness of grinding wheel. From these results, since elastic deformation of the grinding wheel changed depending on the suppot stiffness of single abrasive grain, it was clarified that the ground surface roughness and the residual stock removal of the workpiece were changed by the contact stiffness of grinding wheel.

It is considered that the contact stiffness between the grinding wheel and the workpiece depends on the number of the abrasive grains in contact with the workpiece and the support stiffness of a single abrasive grain. In this paper, the calculating method of the theoritical contact stiffness of grinding wheel in grinding operation was proposed. Comparing calculated results of the contact stiffness in grinding operation with measured it in the stationary state, the contact stiffness of the grinding wheel in grinding operation was investigated.

An investigation of attritious and fracture wear of grinding wheels in precision grinding is described in a two paper sequence. Attritious wear, the subject of this first paper, refers to the dulling of the abrasive grain due to rubbing against the workpiece surface. The amount of dulling, measured by the area of the wear flats on the surface of the wheel, is found to be directly related to the grinding forces. In general, both the vertical and horizontal grinding force components increase linearly with the wear flat area. This is explained by considering the grinding force as the sum of a cutting force due to chip formation and a sliding force due to rubbing between the wear flats and workpiece. Related studies of wheel dressing, surface finish, and workpiece burn are also presented.

In this article, a study on intermittent surface grinding using aluminum oxide grinding wheel with ceramic binder is presented. The testing material is 20XH3A steel (GOST standard – Russian Federation). The testing sample has been sawn 6 grooves, with the width of each groove of 10 mm, the grooves are evenly distributed on the circumference of sample. The testing sample resembles a splined shaft. An experimental matrix of nine experiments has been built by Taguchi method, in which abrasive grain size, workpiece speed, feed rate and depth of cut were selected as input variables. At each experiment, surface roughness (Ra) and roundness error (RE) have been measured. Experimental results show that the aluminum oxide and ceramic binder grinding wheels are perfectly suitable for grinding intermittent surface of 20XH3A steel. Data Envelopment Analysis based Ranking (DEAR) method has been used to solve the multi-objective optimization problem. The results also showed that in order to simultaneously ensure minimum surface roughness and RE, abrasive grain size is 80 mesh, workpiece speed is 910 rpm, feed rate is 0.05 mm/rev and depth of cut is 0.01 mm. If evaluating the grinding process through two criteria including surface roughness and RE, depth of cut is the parameter having the greatest effect on the grinding process, followed by the influence of feed rate, workpiece speed, and abrasive grain is the parameter having the least effect on the grinding process. In addition, the effect of each input parameter on each output parameter has also been analyzed, and orientations for further works have also been recommended in this article

The paper offers a simulation model of the grinding force with account for the current condition of the grinding wheel's working surface—the value of the abrasive grain blunting area. The model of blunting area takes into account various wear mechanisms for abrasive grains: the mechanical wear is realized on the provisions of the kinetic theory of the strength of a solid subjected to cyclic loads, and the physicochemical wear is based on the intensity of interaction between the abrasive and the treated material at grinding temperatures. The offered model of the grinding force takes into account the unsteady stochastic nature of the interaction between abrasive grains of the grinding wheel and the working surface and the intensity of workpiece material deformation resistance. The model is multifactorial and complex and can be realized by supercomputer modeling. The numerical implementation of the model was performed with application of supercomputer devices engaging parallel calculations. The performed experiments on measurement of the grinding force during circular grinding have shown a 10% convergence with the calculated values. The developed grinding force model can be used as a forecast model to determine the operational functionality of grinding wheel when used in varying technological conditions.

In this paper, topography feature of the diamond grinding wheel under the diamond stylus elliptical ultrasonic vibration assisted dressing was studied experimentally. The results indicate that: the increase in dressing power of elliptical ultrasonic vibration will result in the increase in amplitude, and that can increase abrasive protrusion height of the dressing grinding wheel, and also increase the depth of chip pocket. With the increase of feed rate, surface peak and valley values of elliptical ultrasonic vibration dressing grinding wheel increase, that is the average protrusion height of abrasive grain increases. With the increase of dressing depth, surface peak and valley values of elliptical ultrasonic vibration dressing grinding wheel increases, while the number of static effective abrasive grain reduces. In comparison with the ordinary dressing grinding wheel, elliptical ultrasonic assisted dressing in the same parameters can bring about more static effective abrasive grain , more uniform abrasive distribution, a higher abrasive protrusion height and more chip space.

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.

In grinding operation, elastic deformations of the grinding machine and the grinding wheel induce a residual stock removal of workpiece. On the other hand, thermal expansions of the workpiece and the grinding wheel increase the depth of cut. Therefore, calculation of a ground depth of cut and/or the grinding time has to be considered by the elastic deformations and the thermal expansions. From such a viewpoint, in this study, grinding process model taking into account the elastic deformations and the thermal expansions was proposed. This paper aims to estimate the grinding time by means of the proposed grinding process model.

This paper discusses the mechanism behind the grinding force decrease associated with ultrasonication of the grinding wheel in constant-depth-of-cut ultrasonically assisted grinding (UAG). By introducing a grinding model describing the cutting trace of an abrasive grain, an equation relating the grinding force decrease to such process parameters as the amplitude and frequency of vibration and the grinding wheel speed, is established. Experiments are conducted to confirm the theoretical prediction. Theoretical and empirical results both indicate that the decrease in grinding force is due to the grinding chips becoming smaller and fracturing more easily under ultrasonication. The results also suggest that the grinding force decrease is greater at higher vibration amplitudes and at lower grinding wheel speeds.
