We had done the two-pass grind-hardening experiment on 40Cr steel using the conventional aluminum grinding wheel on a surface grinder, compared the structure and performance of the hardened layer of one-pass grinding with those of two-pass grinding and analyzed the forming mechanism of two-pass grinding hardened layers. The results show that there are a similar martensite structure and change rules of hardened layer of one-pass grinding and two-pass grinding in spite of the different of initial structures, for martensite has tempered by the action of the creep feed grinding temperature field. The depths of hardened layer, microhardness and wear resistance have further improved, but the maximal compressive residual stress and its influencing depth of hardened layer have decreased. The forming mechanism of the two-pass grinding hardened layer is the same as that of the grinding hardened layer of quenched steel.

The structure and performance of the hardened layer in this paper has been researched by means of transverse feed grinding 40Cr steel on a plane grinding machine, the result shows that under the action of the grinding temperature field, there are different structural change rules and distributing characteristics of micro-hardness. Although there is always a softened band, which is made up of a transitional area and an unhardened area or a temper area in the hardened layer, the reasonable softened band is conducive to the improvement of wear-resistant quality of a hardened layer under the condition of oil lubrication.

Grind-hardening was done on Steel AISI 1066 with a conventional surface grinder and a corundum grinding wheel, and research was conducted to probe into structures and properties of the hardened layer under varied depth of cut and cooling conditions. Results show that the hardened layer do not change noticeably in their martensitic structures and micro-hardness, which is ranged between 810870HV; But when the depth of cut increased or the dry grinding technique is adopted, the concentration of martensites and carbonides becomes lower, while the amount of residual austenites increases, and the completely hardened zone gets thicker. This conclusion serves as an experimental basis for the active control of properties of the grind-hardened layer of Steel AISI 1066.

Based on orthogonal experiments, the influences of grinding process parameters including depth of cut (ap), workpiece infeed velocity (vw) and transverse regrinding value (Cr) on hardened layer depth (HLD) of 40Cr steel are studied in the grind-hardening process. The grind-hardening orthogonal experiments of 3-factors are performed on the 40Cr steel with the L16 (45) orthogonal table and the experimental optimization design theory. To understand quantitatively the effects of three grinding process parameters, the experimental data are modeled by regression. Among three grinding process parameters, the most important parameter is ap, followed by vw and Cr respectively. The experimental results indicate that HLD would increase with the increasing of the depth of cut and the decreasing of the workpiece infeed velocity in grind-hardening process, but HLD would decrease with the increasing of the interaction between the depth of cut and workpiece infeed velocity.

Grind-hardening was done on 65Mn steel with a conventional surface grinder and a corundum-grinding wheel. Research was conducted to probe into microstructures and properties of the hardened layer under varied depth of cut and cooling conditions. Results show that the hardened layer does not change noticeably in their martensitic structures and micro-hardness, which is ranged between 810-870HV. When the depth of cut increases or the dry grinding technique is adopted, the hardened layer becomes thicker accordingly. Under the condition of dry grinding with the depth of cut 1.0mm, the hardened layer depth reaches 2.0mm. It can find applications in grinding and metal surface modification field.

The temperature, time and cooling rate are key factors in the hardening process using the grinding heat instead of the high frequency induction heat source. Thus, this paper established the mathematical model estimating the grind-hardening temperature, experimentally determined the grinding temperature and the cooling rate of different grinding parameters for 48MnV microalloyed steel using the conventional aluminum grinding wheel on a surface grinder, and investigated the grind-hardening effects and the forming mechanism of grind-hardening layer. The results show that the estimating temperatures are comparatively close to the measuring ones and hence the model could be utilized to optimize the processing parameters, and the satisfactory grind-hardening temperature and cooling rate could be achieved under the optimized processing parameters. The microstructure of the grind-hardening layer, the fine needlelike martensite in the entirely hardened zone, the martensite and ferrite in the transitional region is similar to that acquired through the high frequency induction technique. Especially, the average hardness of the entirely hardened zone is 740HV and the depth of the hardened layer is adjacent to 1.5mm, which indicate that the grind-hardening effects are very excellent. Different from the forming mechanism of the high frequency induction hardened layer, higher grind-hardening temperature is needed to compensate shorter time austenitization, and because of thermo-mechanical loading induced during grinding, from surface to inside, the morphology of martensite changes from fine to thicker, then to finer, other than from thick to finer.

Grind-hardening machining is not only a complex process coupling mechanical, dynamical and thermal effects, but a process containing distinct changes of microstructure and properties of the workpiece grinded surface layer. Under the defined experimental conditions, an empirical formula was constituted to describe the relation between hardened layer depth and grinding parameter of grind-hardening layer, and the multi-parametric optimization was conducted. A commercial FEM software package was used to simulate the grind-hardening process. The distribution and variation characteristics of the temperature and microstructure in the grinded surface layer of workpiece were obtained and the forming mechanism of the grind-hardened layer is revealed.

The grind-hardening of steel 65Mn had been carried out on a conventional surface grinder with alumina grinding wheel, the influence of depth of cut on the microstructure and the microhardness of workpiece, the depth and its uniformity of grind-hardened layer were studied. The results show that the completely hardened zone of grind-hardened layer is composed of fine acicular martensites, residual austenites and a little carbide. The variety of depth of cut has no obvious influence on the microstructure and the microhardness of completely hardened zone of grind-hardened layer. The maximum depth of grind-hardened layer and the depth uniformity of grind-hardened layer of workpiece increases with the increase of depth of cut ap.

This paper studies the grinding temperature field of non-quenched and tempered steels grind-hardening technology using experiments and finite simulation. A mathematical model of grind-hardening temperature field is established to investigate steel 48MnV which is used for making crankshaft. The grinding temperature field is simulated and the hardened depth is forecasted by finite-element method with the triangular shape of the heat source model based on the ANSYS software. The experimental results show that the simulative temperature and estimating hardened depth are comparatively close to the measuring ones. The model could be utilized to forecast the distribution and variation characteristics of the grinding temperature field and the hardened layer depth.
