In this current era of competitive machinery productions, the industries are designed to place more emphasis on the product quality and reduction of cost whilst abiding by the pollution-preventing policy. In attempting to delve into the concerns, the industries are aware that the effectiveness of existing lubrication systems must be improved to achieve power-efficient and pollutionpreventing ma...

The beneficiation process contains a number of links which are closely related to all aspects of the quality of products in a process which has a direct impact on the next one, thus influencing the product quality of all processes. Grinding operations form a critical stage in the middle position of the beneficiation process and is the most important part. Grinding operations here refers to ore ...

Thermal pretreatment or torrefaction of biomass under anoxic condition can produce an energy dense and consistent quality solid biomass fuel for combustion and co-firing applications. This paper investigates the fuel characteristics and grindability of pine chips and logging residues torrefied at temperatures ranging from 225 °C to 300 °C and 30 min residence time. Grinding performance of torre...

This paper analyses the fracture behavior of the brazed BCBN grain by comparison with brazed PCBN grain through grinding test of Nickel-based superalloy. The self-sharpening effect is created by timing micro-fracture behavior for BCBN abrasive grains, but by macro-fracture behavior for PCBN abrasive grains. During grinding with brazed BCBN abrasive grains, the material is removed together with ...

This paper discusses the application of an eco-grinding system using a mixture of compressed cold air and vegetable oil. The feasibility of the system was assessed using the surface grinding of plain carbon steel 1045 with a BWA60MVA1 wheel. The investigation showed that cold air can be used to suppress surface burning under certain material removal rates and has an advantage of reduced grindin...

Abstract Aerostatic spindles are used in precision grinding applications requiring high stiffness and very low error motions (5 to 25 nm). Forces generated during precision grinding are small and present challenges for accurate and reliable process monitoring. These challenges are met by incorporating non-contact displacement sensors into an aerostatic spindle that are calibrated to measure gri...

Successful of grinding in practice is highly depending on the level of expertise of the machinist and engineer. Knowledge Management might offer a strategy to keep the valuable knowledge. The main objective of Knowledge Management (KM) is to manage knowledge process, the knowledge itself could not be managed, what can be managed is the knowledge gathering, storing and organizing, retrieving, an...

To study the establishment of homochirality observed in the crystal growth experiment of chiral molecules from a solution under grinding, we extend the lattice gas model of crystal growth as follows. A lattice site can be occupied by a chiral molecule in R or S form, or can be empty. Molecules form homoclusters by nearest neighbor bonds. They change their chirality if they are isolated monomers...

The following article examines the influence of glass-crystalline bond in grinding wheels with grains made from microcrystalline aluminum oxide, and specifically its effect upon the values of selected operational indicators in the process of traverse internal cylindrical grinding of surfaces made from Inconel® alloy 600. The experimental test results obtained showed that changes in the bond pha...

The model of surface grinding with a nanoparticle jet flow of MQL was established. The surface grinding thermal stress of three workpiece materials, namely, 45 Steel, 2Cr13, and nano-ZrO2 dental ceramic, were numerically simulated. Results show that dry grinding generates larger tensile stress, whereas MQL grinding generates larger compressive stress. The finished surface of workpiece produces ...
