Adjustment of Bearing Preload for High-Speed Spindles

Bearing preload needs to be carefully controlled and understood. Insufficient preload leads to low stiffness while excessive preload leads to higher temperature rise and even seizure. As rotational speed increases several factors cause an increase in preload: [4] Schematic drawing showing general arrangement of lubrication system 3/8 Steel tubing External by-pass line added to all […]

BASICS OF RECIPROCATING GRINDING

According to DIN 8589-11, reciprocating grinding is a peripheral longitudinal grinding process with a back-and-forth feed motion, in which the feed motion takes place gradually in small steps with a relatively high feedrate [DIN 8589]. 16.2.1 Process Characterization Reciprocating grinding is used for generating plain surfaces of usually large lateral dimensions. The grinding spindle is […]

Roundness Experiments and Comparison with Simulation

All roundness problems predicted by simulation were experienced in practice when grinding a workpiece with a flat and sometimes when grinding an initially circular workpiece. The simulation technique was tested by comparison with an experimental shape measured after grinding. The pregrinding shape of the workpiece with a flat is shown in Figure 19.40. The workpiece […]
