Abstract In this article, the laser-assisted ultrasonic vibration dressing technique was applied to the cubic boron nitride (CBN) grinding wheel to study the effect of various process parameters (namely, laser power, dressing depth, feed rate, and grinding wheel speed) on the grinding force, surface quality, and morphological evolution of CBN abrasive particles. The results showed that abrasive particles’ morphology mainly undergoes micro-crushing, local crushing, large-area crushing, macro-crushing, and other morphological changes. The dressing force can be effectively reduced by controlling the dressing process parameters. Besides, grinding tests are performed on the grinding wheel after dressing to reveal specimens’ surface quality. Excellent grinding characteristics and grinding quality of the grinding wheel were obtained by the proposed technique with the optimized process parameters.

The kinematic characteristics, grinding force, surface quality of workpiece surface, and wear of abrasive particles were studied by theoretical analysis and experimental study on the single cubic boron nitride abrasive particles under ultrasonic-assisted high-speed grinding. Under the condition of the same grinding parameters, the motion characteristics and the grinding forces of the two machining modes of general grinding and ultrasonic-assisted grinding are compared and analyzed. Research shows that the ultrasonic vibration is applied in the common external circular grinding on grinding particle movement characteristics changed obviously, grinding particle trajectory of variable length, cutting groove width wider, thereby improving the grinding efficiency and the grinding removal rate; ultrasonic assisted under high speed grinding, the grinding force is higher than that of common grinding force is small, efficiency of grinding under ultrasonic processing mode is much higher than ordinary grinding, the surface quality of the workpiece has improved markedly.

A set of precision vertical grinding experiment on WC-CO cemented tungsten carbide materials was carried out using cubic boron nitride (CBN) grinding wheel. Different grinding parameters such as rotation speeds of workpiece, feed rates and grinding depths were employed during precision vertical grinding. Surface roughness was measured for studying the grinding charateristics of WC-CO cemented tungsten carbide in this removal mode. Optimal grinding parameters were obtained by changing the process parameters. The research results have an important significance to improve grinding quality and efficiency for precision grinding cemented tungsten carbide materials.

Abstract Composite manufacturing with multiple energy fields is an important source of processing technology innovation. In this work, comparative experiments on the conventional grinding (CG) and ultrasonic vibration-assisted grinding (UVAG) of hardened GCr15 steel were conducted with WA wheel. The grinding wheel wear patterns and chips were characterized. In addition, grinding force, force ratio, and ground surface quality were investigated to evaluate wheel performance. Results illustrate that the interaction between abrasive grains and workpiece in UVAG process has the characteristics of high frequency and discontinuity. The wear property of abrasive grains is changed and the grinding force is decreased because the generation of micro-fracture in abrasive grains improves the grinding wheel self-sharpening. Better surface quality is obtained, the surface roughness is reduced by up to 18.96%, and the number of defects on the machined surface is reduced through the superior reciprocating ironing of UVAG. Accordingly, WA wheel performance is improved by UVAG.

Abstract The wear behavior of a single-layer electroplated cubic boron nitride (cBN) grinding wheel was investigated in creep feed profile grinding Inconel 718 narrow-deep-groove with a width of 2 mm. In this paper, the protrusion height of cBN grits on the side edge of the grinding wheel was measured by three-dimensional optical profiler, and a scanning electron microscope was used to detect the topography of worn cBN grit and the nickel bonding layer. The investigation results indicated that the steady wear stage of the grinding wheel shared more than 84.6% of the wheel lifespan, and the machining precision of the grinding wheel was kept at a high level. The fracture mode of the cBN grit was proven to be cleavage. The source of the cleavage cracks was observed on the surface of wear flat or the side surface of the cBN grit. The holding strength of cBN grit could be weakened due to the joint surface breakage, the displacement of grit, or the cracks of the nickel bonding layer. The transition layer was contributed to the decrease of the bonding strength. Severe macro fractures and the concentration of pulled out grits were observed on the transition edge and the inner area of the side edge, separately. This study provides a deep understanding of the wear mechanism of a single-layer electroplated cBN grinding wheel.

Ultrasonic vibration assisted micro end grinding (UAMEG) is a promising processing method for micro parts made of hard and brittle materials. First, the influence of ultrasonic assistance on the mechanism of this processing technology is theoretically analyzed. Then, in order to reveal the effects of ultrasonic vibration and grinding parameters on grinding forces and surface quality, contrast grinding tests of silica glass with and without ultrasonic assistance using micro radial electroplated diamond wheel are conducted. The grinding forces are measured using a three-component dynamometer. The surface characteristics are detected using the scanning electron microscope. The experiment results demonstrate that grinding forces are significantly reduced by introducing ultrasonic vibration into conventional micro end grinding (CMEG) of silica glass; ultrasonic assistance causes inhibiting effect on variation percentages of tangential grinding force with grinding parameters; ductile machining is easier to be achieved and surface quality is obviously improved due to ultrasonic assistance in UAMEG. Therefore, larger grinding depth and feed rate adopted in UAMEG can lead to the improvement of removal rate and machining efficiency compared with CMEG.

This research paper focuses on grinding of materials used for tools (100Cr6 (CSN 4 14109), X210Cr12 ( CSN 4 19436) and epoxy resin) using grinding wheels from cubic boron nitride and diamond. The disadvantage of grinding of difficult-to-machine materials is higher wear of grinding wheels. The modern grinding wheels are able to achieve high accuracy of dimensions and high surface quality with a smaller wear of grinding wheels then grinding wheels from conventional materials. Correctly selected technological conditions are one of the most important matters to achieve the required surface quality. The main aim of this research is to determine the influence of technological conditions to quality of surface after planar grinding. The research determines the influence of the grain type of grinding wheels, feed rate and cutting depth on the quality of functional surfaces.

The effects of ultrasonic frequency on the grinding force and surface quality were analyzed from the grinding experiment on ZTA nano-composite ceramics. The results indicate that, in the same parameters, ultrasonic normal grinding force is about 65 to 85 percents of the ordinary grinding condition, and the surface quality is better than that of ordinary grinding condition, as the frequency increasing, this trend will be more evident. The reasons for it were also discussed from microscopic and the nonlocal theory in this paper.

A new dressing device for dense type diamond grinding wheel, whose elliptic vibration was prompted by single longitudinal vibration, was designed using a local resonance method. It was employed to dress the metallic bond super-abrasive grinding wheel and the dressing force characteristics were analyzed. The results indicate that the thrust force decreased to 1/7-1/10 of that of conventional method, and the main cutting force decreased by 70%. Compared to other dressing parameters, the dressing force in elliptic ultrasonic vibration was more sensitive to grinding speed. Thrust force and main cutting force increased rapidly when rotation speed beyond 72rpm. But when the ultrasonic power was higher than 50W, dressing force decreased very slowly. It was observed that the new dressing method is contribute to better surface finish such as more even surface, less crush abrasives, more uniform abrasive abscission and so on than the conventional method.
