A new form-grinding method of cylindrical involute gears for electrical vehicles (EVs) is proposed to obtain stable contact performance gear tooth surfaces and improve their reliability based on a predesigned controllable second-order transmission error function. The function assigned drive design specifications EVs. Mathematical models modified the pair can be obtained by Moreover, section pro...

This paper presents results obtained from the grinding of aluminium-based metal matrix composites reinforced with either aluminium oxide (Al2O3) or silicon carbide (SiC) particles using grinding wheels made of SiC in a vitrified matrix or diamond in a resin-bonded matrix. The study used grinding speeds of 1100–2200 m min , a grinding depth of 15 m for rough grinding and 0.1–1 m for fine grindin...

Study on ambient and cryogenic grinding was performed to test the novelty of cryogenic grinding and pin point the drawbacks of ambient grinding. Comparative study had shown that ambient grinding need more power (8.92%) and specific energy (14.5%) than cryogenic grinding. Particle size analysis had shown that cryogenic grinding produced coarser particles. Comparative study of energy law constant...

This study investigates the grinding of sintered silicon nitride using a SiC wheel with a fine abrasive grit size and dense vitreous bond. The difference of hardness between the green SiC abrasive and sintered Si3N4 workpiece (25.5 vs. 13.7 GPa) is small. Large grinding forces, particularly the specific tangential grinding forces, are observed in SiC grinding of Si3N4. The measured specific gri...

For time and cost saving reasons, the lowest surface roughness possible is sought in milling operations. High speed milling is recommended in order to minimise the amount of material to be removed in subsequent finishing operations, e.g. grinding, electrical discharge machining or manual polishing. Several roughness parameters are usually employed for the characterization of polished surfaces. ...

In this present work, The effect of input parameters viz. grinding wheel speed, work-piece speed, abrasive grain size, depth of cut, concentration of cutting fluid, and number of passes has been found on the surface roughness of cylindrical grinded AISI 4140 steel has been found. The other parameters like feed rate, diameter of work-piece, coolant flow rate, etc. are kept constant. Three levels...

Surface roughness is a significant parameter which determines the efficiency of optical components. Surface damages induced by grinding strongly influence the mechanical strength and optical quality of optical glasses. It is meaningful to rapid evaluate the surface roughness through the measurement of different grinding parameters. In this study, a cup diamond wheel (D64) is used in grinding pr...
