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.

The efficiency of using of CBN grinding wheels highly depends on the dressing process as well as on the coolant lubricant used. The Institute of Grinding and Precision Technology (KSF) investigated the performance of vitrified CBN grinding wheels -being dressed using different parameters- while using two different grinding oils and two different water-miscible coolant lubricants. The obtained results show that the performance of the vitrified CBN grinding wheels regarding the quality of the workpiece surface, the grinding forces as well as the wear of the grinding wheel, highly depend on the dressing conditions and the type of the coolant lubricant used. Compared to the water-miscible coolant lubricants, the grinding oils show better results.

Effect Of Surface

Magnetic chucks are commonly used for workholding in precision grinding and turning of ferromagnetic materials. The workholding force produced by the chuck is strongly influenced by the texture and form of the workpiece surface in contact with the chuck surface. This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation into the effects of workpiece surface flatness, finish, and texture on the normal and frictional workholding forces produced by a radial 4-pole electromagnetic chuck. Ring shaped case-hardened steel specimens were used in the experiments. The results show that the normal holding force decreases with increasing flatness deviation. The effect of surface roughness on the normal holding force was found to be small compared to the effect of flatness but significantly impacts the tangential holding force. The workpiece surface texture was also found to have an effect on the workholding forces.

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.

This paper presents advanced tools for ultra precision grinding which offer a high wear resistance and can be used to generate high-quality parts with an ultraprecise surface finish. The first approach features defined dressed, coarse-grained, single layered, metal bonded diamond grinding wheels. These grinding wheels are called Engineered Grinding Wheels and have been dressed by an adapted conditioning process which leads to uniform abrasive grain protrusion heights and flattened grains. This paper shows the results from grinding optical glasses with such Engineered Grinding Wheels regarding the specific forces and the surface roughness. The results show that the cutting mechanism turns into ductile removal and optical surfaces are achievable. On the other hand, the specific normal force F´n increases due to increased contact area of the flattened diamond grains. It is shown that the topography of the Engineered Grinding Wheels has a strong beneficial influence on surface roughness. The second new tool for ultra precision grinding is made of a CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) poly-crystalline diamond layer with sharp edges of micrometre-sized diamond crystallites as a special type of abrasive. The sharp edges of the crystallites act as cutting edges which can be used for grinding. It is shown that by using CVD-diamond-coated grinding wheels a high material removal rate and a high surface finish with surface roughness in the nanometre range can be achieved. The CVD-diamond layers exhibit higher wear resistance compared to conventional metal and resin bonded diamond wheels. In conclusion, this paper shows that not only conventional fine grained, multi-layered resinoid diamond grinding wheels but also coarse-grained and binderless CVD-coated diamond grinding wheels can be applied to machine brittle and hard materials by ultra precision grinding.

Sliding Force

In present paper, a semi-empirical grinding force model is developed combined with the achievements of previous researchers by composing effects of normal and tangential grinding forces in two main parts respectively: cutting force and sliding force. Final equations for the total normal and tangential force components is established. This model is used to predict the total normal and tangential force in the surface grinding. These force components were expressed in terms of the grinding process parameters. There are four unknown coefficients in each equation which can be determined by experiment results at specific conditions with the variations of grinding process parameters. An equation for sliding force is established with the effect of specific sliding energy in terms of the experimental parameters. The average contact pressure and friction coefficient are taken into account. Four different water-based grinding fluids were tested for different specific grinding conditions. Low viscosity grinding fluid can have better performance than the high viscosity one due to the higher useful flow in the grinding contact area. The calculated normal and tangential grinding results are compared with the experimental ones. The verifications show that deviations can be affected by the performance of the fluid at heavy grinding conditions due to the sliding friction inside of rolling friction. To have a better agreement with experiment data. Shallow grinding condition is chosen to obtain the modified model.

The effects of ultrasonic assisted grinding on vitrified CBN grinding wheels performance have been investigated. The ultrasonic vibration has been superimposed to the workpiece in feed and cross feed directions and the kinematics of the process in both directions have been discussed.

Rail Grinding

Many factors could affect the grinding force during rail grinding processes. Therefore, the grinding force modeling is necessary for predicting the grinding forces under different rail grinding parameter conditions. In this study, 3D models of grinding wheels were constructed based on the surface topographies of real grinding wheels. By means of simulation of rail grinding processes using the DEFORM-3D, the influences of grinding parameters on the grinding forces were explored. Furthermore, in order to verify the simulation results, rail grinding experiments were conducted using a rail grinding friction testing apparatus. Both simulation and experimental results showed that the grinding force increased with the grinding pressure and the granularity of grinding wheel and decreased with the rotational speed of the grinding wheel. A correction factor ks of 0.894 was obtained using the least square method to reduce the error between the simulation and experimental results from 10.22 to 4.42%.

Important Form

The nature and extent of grinding wheel wear in precision grinding were investigated directly from the wear particles removed from the wheel. A statistical analysis of the wear particle size distributions was developed to determine the relative amounts of bond fracture, grain fracture, and attritious wear. Most of the wear consists of grain and bond fracture particles with relatively more bond fracture occurring with softer wheels. The rate at which fracture wear occurs is directly related to the grinding forces and the amount of binder in the wheel. The attritious wear, although contributing insignificantly to the total, is the most important form of wear as it is directly related to the size of the wear flats, grinding forces, and workpiece burn, and therefore controls grain and bond fracture wear.
