In order to make a sufficient analysis of the grinding process, a number of influences must be taken into account, and their relevance of their respective effects on the process must be evaluated. Some essential input parameters are the grinding tool, the workpiece to be machined, the variables as well as influences derivable from cooling […]

Honing Stones with Boron Nitride and Diamond
In contrary to conventional honing tools, cBN or diamond honing stones must be adapted to the form of the workpiece prior to use. For the honing of holes, for example, the tools are ground to the dimensions of the hole in a pre-tensioned state on an external grinding machine with silicon carbide or precious corundum […]
Planar Lapping
Planar lapping is used to create flat surfaces with high surface qualities. Two method variations are distinguished. In the first case, the workpieces are freely movable and are guided over the lapping disc; in the second case they are placed in so-called carriers with restricted guidance in order to avoid reciprocal damages. The workpieces are […]
Method Variations and Applications
Common to all blasting methods is that kinetic energy is responsible for the operational performance. The blasting abrasive used is also furthered and accelerated in the case of pressure blasting by fluid or gaseous carrier means. In centrifugal blasting, a centrifugal wheel accelerates the blasting abrasive. The amount of removal depends thereby on the mass […]
Service Life Monitoring while Grinding Using AE
10.6.1 Monitoring Grinding Wheel Wear with the AE Effective Value The AE effective value depends to a great extent on the specific material removal rate Q’w, the dressing conditions and the grinding wheel specifications as well. Likewise, the level of the URMS-value in the individual process phases correlates with the effective peak-to-valley height of the […]
The Influence of Variables and Parameters on the Result
The input variables of the grinding process determine the process parameters and the grinding results to a decisive degree. A continuous chip removal is guaranteed according to DIN 6580 by the coordination of the cutting motions and the infeed motion. The infeed motion can be composed of several components. Moreover, in some methods, a depth […]
Input Variables
The input variables of the honing process can be divided into system quantities and variables (Fig. 7-7). Fig. 7-7. Process variables and result of the honing process The following system quantities represent most frequently fixed process variables: • the machine, with its performance data, material rigidity and dynamic behaviour, • the workpiece, with its properties, […]
Double-Disc Coplanar Lapping
Different from lapping with one disc is the double-sided, simultaneous machining of two opposing planar surfaces (Fig. 8-6). In this method, the workpieces are inserted in geared carriers (rotating discs). These are held by pin rings or gear rings. Then they are driven, they rotate about both their own axis and the central axis. The […]
Free Abrasive Grinding
9.1.2 Operating Principle Defined generally, free abrasive grinding is a cutting process in which free abrasive parts — so called chips — remove material from the workpiece surface. It is not an improvement in form and dimension which is in the foreground in this case, but rather the elimination of surface faults and the establishment […]
Detecting Chattering
Chattering represents one of the main causes of quality problems in grinding, because the dimension and shape accuracy as well as the surface quality are influenced negatively [BAUS03, KARP01]. Chattering can be traced back to selfexcitation. In the grinding process, the main causes of forced vibrations are primarily imbalance and grinding wheel eccentricity. Further possible […]
