Abstract: Precision manufacturing processes like grinding are capable of producing parts to high dimensional accuracies and excellent surface finish. Process monitoring is critical in grinding to achieve ...

Abstract: Grinding wheel corner wear plays a very significant role in certain cylindrical plunge grinding operations in which the corner radius is critical. The corner wear affects the tolerance specified ...

Abstract: Based on the results of the preliminary study on the influence of high intensity Nd: YAG laser radiation on grinding wheel constituents, an experimental set-up for dressing a grinding wheel ...

Abstract: The importance of wheel surface topography and its influence on the grinding performance and the workpiece finish is widely recognized. Wheel surface characterization is an important aspect towards ...

Abstract: The grinding action and the rounding mechanism are highly complex in centerless grinding. The process geometry and the dynamic stability of the workpiece are critical factors affecting the quality ...

Abstract: Investigations on the use of laser as a dressing tool for grinding wheels have been carried out and the results are reported in a two paper sequence. This paper reports the results of ...

Abstract: The mechanism of surface formation in electrochemical machining (ECM) is not fully understood because of the complex heterogenous reactions possible in the inter-electrode gap. A complete understanding ...
