Theoretical Assessment of the Role of Bond Material during Grinding of Superhard Materials with Diamond Wheels

The grinding of superhard materials poses an important challenge to manufacturing industry, due the increased wear and high possibility fracture both wheel workpiece material. Various strategies have been proposed for effective these materials, but further research is still required, especially in cases which hardness are almost equal. In this study, role bond a diamond during processing such as synthetic diamond, investigated using theoretical models FE simulation. Six different types bonds studied effect their properties on stress distribution material determined. Results indicate that even slight increase elastic modulus can affect considerably state workpiece, directly affecting critical embedding value grains into bond, something alter efficiency materials. Thus, wheels with should be selected order grain retention, efficiency, reduce specific consumption at higher cross feeds speeds.
