The semi-fixed abrasive tool (SFAT) is a new tool used in the ultra-precision machining. Based on the theory of particle flow code (PFC), the abrasive particle motion characteristics of SFAT are studied in SFAT processing which is divided to workpiece pressing progress and workpiece tangential moving progress. It is conclusion that the particles are fallen out the tool surface due to the fracture of bonds under the normal force of workpiece point in the workpiece pressing progress; the particles contacting the workpiece are moved on every hand while some particles fall out the surface at the edge of abrasive tool in the workpiece tangential moving progress, and the maximum value of binding agent holding force is computed.

This paper analyzes the property parameters influences of semi-fixed abrasive plate on the ‘trap’ effect with discrete element simulation by Particle Flow Code (PFC). The effects of the property parameters such as porosity, hardness and size of the abrasive particles, friction coefficient between the abrasive particles and the bonding agent concentration are simulated. The simulation results show that porosity, friction coefficient, bonding agent concentration has great influences on the ‘trap’ effect, while hardness and size of the abrasive particles almost have no effect. Grey incidence analysis is carried to determine the influence degree of porosity, friction coefficient, bonding agent concentration, and the results show that the most important factor is the porosity, followed by the friction coefficient, and then the bonding agent concentration.

This paper firstly summarizes two-dimensional numerical simulation of semi-fixed abrasive tool (SFAT), then three-dimensional model of SFAT is established by PFC3D (Particle Flow Code in 3 Dimensions). In order to make the compression ratio simulation match to experimental one about SFAT, the mechanical parameters of model are adjusted. In the direct shearing simulation, the relation between the shear stress and the horizontal shear displacement under different parallel bond stiffness are obtained. By Comparative Analysis the numerical results and test experiments of the direct shearing, the three-dimensional model of SFAT is further proven rational.
