The application of emulsion for combined heat extraction and lubrication requires continuous monitoring of the quality of emulsion to sustain a desired grinding environment; this is applicable to other grinding fluids as well. Thus to sustain a controlled grinding environment, it is necessary to adopt an effectively lubricated wheel-work interface. The current study was undertaken to assess exp...

Silicon wafers are used as substrates to build more than 90% of integrated circuits. One of the manufacturing processes for silicon wafers is grinding. This paper reports the investigations of silicon wafer grinding using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). FEA models are first used to study the effects of process parameters on waviness reduction in the grinding of wire-sawn wafers on a rigid chuck....

the major problem in material removal process specially grinding is heat generation during the process and thus residual stress on the surface of product. therefore, optimization of high efficiency deep grinding (hedg) process is the main goal of this study in order to reduce heat and residual stress and also increase strength and surface hardness of aisi1045 steel by optimization of the proces...

In this work, grinding or microcutting tools in the form of pellets were manufactured using a bounded alumina abrasive grains. The bound used is a vitreous material containing quartz feldspars, kaolinite and a quantity of hematite. The pellets were used in glass grinding process to replace the free abrasive grains lapping process. The study of the elaborated pellets were done to define their ef...

In this study, the grindability of cast magnetic alloys (Fe-Pt-Nb magnetic alloy and magnetic stainless steel) was evaluated and compared with that of conventional dental casting alloys (Ag-Pd-Au alloy, Type 4 gold alloy, and cobalt-chromium alloy). Grindability was evaluated in terms of grinding rate (i.e., volume of metal removed per minute) and grinding ratio (i.e., volume ratio of metal rem...

To facilitate the manufacturing of a ball-end mill, this paper presents an algorithm for ball-end mills gashing by using a five-axis computer numerical control (CNC) grinding machine. In this study, the normal helix models are proposed. Then, based on the cutting edge geometric model and the machining mode of the five-axis computer numerical control (CNC) grinding machine, the coordinate of the...
