This paper offers an experimental study of the microcutting mechanisms in marble grinding to aid the optimization of the marble grinding process. The necessity for investigating these mechanisms is dictated by the increased use of marble in many applications and the fact that grinding and polishing processes are the dominant technologies used to meet surface finish requirements in this natural material. The experiments are aimed at the determination of the normal component of the cutting force and of the grain traces in microcutting with a single diamond grain. The investigations carried out make provisions for establishing critical grain penetration and cutting depths and allow the prediction of the normal cutting force component as a function of grain penetration speed and depth.

Experimental investigation of residual stresses after heat treatment and grinding processes in the production of ball bearing rings has been carried out. The residual stresses were measured by X-ray diffraction method utilizing chromium radiation, which has an average penetration depth of 5 μm incident on 100Cr6 (AISI-E52100) ball bearing steel. The process parameters of heat treatment and grinding processes were varied so as to represent the extreme values that can be applied in the respective processes. Hardness and percent retained austenite limit the heat treatment process parameters; while roundness, surface roughness and form the grinding process. Tensile surface residual stresses on the raceway of ball bearing rings changes to compression after grinding in both circumferential and axial directions. In grinding relatively higher compressive stresses were measured in axial direction compared to the circumferential direction. This experimental investigation also showed that the influence of heat treatment process parameters on the magnitude and distribution of residual stresses survived even after grinding process; i.e. heat treatment and grinding processes cannot be evaluated independently in process design for favourable residual stresses.

This paper presents an experimental study on the diametrical overcut and taper obtained during the machining of micro holes by electro-discharge machining (EDM). Many trials were taken by machining a 2.0 mm electrolytic copper rod to 0.50 mm under various conditions to analyse the effect of process parameters by wire electric discharge grinding process (WEDG). The optimum process parameters were determined by Taguchi’s method. Then a set of electrodes were produced with the determined optimum process parameters and were used to machine micro holes on Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The diameters of the holes were measured and the effects of various parameters were analysed for the variation in taper and diametrical overcut. The experimental results were analysed using analysis of variance approach.

This paper shows the results of investigations performed in the brittle materials microcutting at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Belgrade University. The interactions between a single diamond grain and the machined granite are analyzed. The change in the normal cutting force as a function of grain penetration speed and depth was experimentally established in microcutting of two types of granite originating from Serbia. Based on the grain traces on granite and the generated cracks, the critical grain penetration depth for the formation of brittle fracturing was established. The experiments are intended to assist in the optimization of the grinding process as technology dominant in the granite finishing.
