This study evaluated microstructural and crystallographic phase changes after grinding (G) and regeneration firing/anneling (R) of Y-TZP ceramics. Thirty five bars (LavaTM and Ice Zirkon) were divided: Y-TZP pre-sintered, control (C), regeneration firing (R), dry grinding (DG), dry grinding+regeneration firing (DGR), wet grinding (WG) and wet grinding+regeneration firing (WGR). Grinding was con...

There is considered a possibility of effectiveness increase machinery billet flat deep grinding at the expense high-speed machining use and also on an automatic cycle mode changes. The application grinding, for instance, slots or profiles turbine blade locks allows rejecting their preliminary milling, carrying out single position one machine which increases accuracy its capacity.

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...

Introduction When the grinding wheel specifications are properly chosen, a SiC grinding wheel performs remarkably well for grinding partially stabilized MgO-ZrO2 ceramics (MgO-PSZ). Rather surprisingly, the highest Gratios are obtained at higher grinding rates for the SiC wheel. This, and the fact that SiC grinding wheels can be readily shaped for use in precision cylindrical form grinding, has...

Internal Grinding is an approach to produce desired outcome with greater surface finish in metal cutting process. Unfortunately, external machining parameters play a vital role in research areas with numerous investigations. Considering this, present work focuses on the machining parameters on internal grinding process with necessary coolant oil as has been experimentally observed in our resear...

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...

This research is to investigate the dynamic characteristics of the grinding process. A kind of robust grinding wheel reciprocating arrangement is schemed out, which realizes the precise point-grinding machining. The grinding wheel reciprocating movement is driven by a linear motor to replace the traditional crank or hydraulic pressure drive device. Based on the time series method, the modal exp...

Abstract Grinding is a high carbon emission process in processing technology. To improve the energy efficiency of grinding and reduce emissions costs process, concept proposed. The study takes maximisation benefit as optimization objective. linear speed wheel, feed workpiece radial wheel are taken variables. Considering performance taking machine tool machining requirements constraints, multi-o...
