The volumetric portion of grit VG, of bond VB and of pores VP of the total volume of the grinding component V is described by the equation v = V* + v, + Vp (3.5) If the individual columns are referred to the total volume V of the grinding component, we obtain the so-called structural […]

Influencing the Material Properties of Steels
Materially speaking, the machinability of steels is determined by its structure and mechanical properties (hardness, tensile strength). Of primary importance for the composition and thus for the mechanical properties as well are: • carbon content (C-content), • alloying elements and • heat treatment. The percentile amounts of carbon or other alloying elements given in this […]
Properties and Uses
Nickel-based alloys are highly temperature-resistant, resistant to corrosion and also very tough. Thus, they are presently the more often exploited material for components that are exposed to non-uniform mechanical strains at working temperatures up to 1100 °C. Because of their high heat resistance, thermal fatigue resistance and oxidation resistance in the high-temperature range of aviation […]
Cooling Lubricant Supply
The efficiency of the cooling lubrication is not only determined by the cooling lubricant’s physical and chemical properties, but also by the method of supplying the fluid into the cutting gap. For a sufficient supply of the contact area with the cooling lubricant, the cooling lubricant volume rate, the cooling lubricant discharge speed and the […]
The Depth of Dressing Cut aed
The depth of dressing cut aed is used for stationary dressing tools and diamond form rollers. It acts directly upon the dressing chip thickness. At higher depths of cut, the initial effective surface roughness of the grinding wheel increases along with the dressing forces. For dressing cBN and diamond grinding wheels, which are highly resistant […]
Natural Grit Materials
The category of natural grinding resources comprises the grit materials quartz (flint), corundum, emery, garnet and diamond. Except for diamond, these materials are usually of insufficient strength, so they are of secondary importance in comparison with synthetic grit materials for most industrial purposes. A further reason for the exclusion of natural grit materials is the […]
The Designation of Conventional Tools
The parameters used to designate grinding wheels made of bonded abrasives follow DIN 69 100 und DIN 69 186 (Figs. 3-13 and 3-14). The following specifications are required in the order indicated for the designation of conventional grinding components: 1. name 2. DIN-main number 3. form number 4. profile shape 5. nominal size 6. material […]
The Influence of Alloying Elements on Material Properties
Alloying and trace elements can influence the machinability of steel by changing the composition or by forming lubricating or abrasive inclusions. In the following, the influence of the most often used elements on the machinability of steel materials will be described. Manganese Manganese improves hardenabillity and increases the strength of steels (ca. 100 N/mm2 per […]
Grinding Behaviour — Influences on the Grinding Process
In general, nickel-based alloys are numbered among materials that are difficult to machine because of their mechanical, thermal and chemical properties [DIN84, KUNZ82]. Due to varying chemical composition and microstructure however, nickel-based alloys show fluctuations in machinability. On the whole, the high heat resistance and low heat conductivity of nickel — based alloys as well […]
Supervision, Maintenance and Disposal
The successfulness of the cooling lubricant chosen for a machining task depends upon its proper treatment. For this, constant inspection of the chemical, physical and biological properties of the cooling lubricant is required. Based on the results gained from monitoring the lubricant, necessary maintenance arrangements can be induced. The type and extent of supervision depends […]
