  1. GRINDING AND OTHER ABRASIVE PROCESSESChapter 25 Manufacturing Processes, 1311 Dr Simin Nasseri Southern Polytechnic State University

  2. Material Removal Processes • A family of shaping operations, the common feature of which is removal of material from a starting workpart so the remaining part has the desired geometry. Material Removal Machining – material removal by a sharp cutting tool, e.g., turning, milling, drilling. Abrasiveprocesses – material removal by hard, abrasive particles, e.g., grinding. Nontraditionalprocesses - various energy forms other than sharp cutting tool to remove material, e.g. electrochemical and thermal energy processes.

  3. Turning Milling Drilling Boring Reaming Shaping Machining Processes Traditional Chip Removal Nontraditional Machining • Ultrasonic • Electrical Discharge • Electro-arc • Optical Lasers • Electrochemical • Chem-milling • Abrasive Jet Cutting • Electron Beam Machining • Plasma Arc Machining • Sawing • Broaching • Planing • Grinding • Honing • Lapping

  4. Abrasive Machining • Material removal by action of hard, abrasive particles usually in the form of a bonded wheel • Generally used as finishing operations after part geometry has been established by conventional machining • Grinding is most important abrasive process • Other abrasive processes: honing, lapping, superfinishing, polishing, and buffing

  5. Why Abrasive Processes are Important • Can be used on all types of materials • Some can produce extremely fine surfacefinishes, to 0.025 m (1 -in) • Some can hold dimensions to extremely close tolerances

  6. Grinding • Material removal process in which abrasive particles are contained in a wheel that operates at very high surface speeds.

  7. Wheel Structure • The grinding wheel: • is usually disk‑shaped and precisely balanced for high rotational speeds. • Consists of abrasive particles and bonding material. • Abrasive particles accomplish cutting. • Bonding materialholds particles in place and establishes shape and structure of wheel. • Figure 25.1 Typical structure of a grinding wheel.

  8. Abrasive Material Properties • High hardness • Wear resistance • Toughness • Friability - capacity to fracture when cutting edge dulls, so a new sharp edge is exposed

  9. Traditional Abrasive Materials Aluminum oxide (Al2O3) ‑ most common abrasive Used to grind steel and other ferrous high‑strength alloys Silicon carbide (SiC) ‑ harder than Al2O3 but not as tough Used on aluminum, brass, stainless steel, some cast irons and certain ceramics

  10. Hardness of Abrasive Materials • Abrasive materialKnoop hardness • Aluminum oxide 2100 • Silicon carbide 2500 • Cubic boron nitride 5000 • Diamond (synthetic) 7000

  11. Surface Finish • Most grinding is performed to achieve good surface finish • Best surface finish is achieved by: • Small grain sizes • Higher wheel speeds • Denser wheel structure = more grits per wheel area • Two main categories of grinding: • Surface grinding • Cylindrical grinding

  15. Other Abrasive Processes • Honing • Lapping • Superfinishing

  16. Honing • Abrasive process performed by a set of bonded abrasive sticks using a combination of rotational and oscillatory motions. • Creates a characteristic cross‑hatched surface that retains lubrication. • Grit sizes range between 30 and 600. • Surface finishes of 0.12 m (5 -in) or better. • Figure 25.16 The honing process: (a) the honing tool used for internal bore surface.

  17. Honing • Common application is to finish the bores of internal combustion engines.

  18. Lapping • Uses fluid suspension of very small abrasive particles between workpiece and lap (tool). • Lapping compound - fluid with abrasives, general appearance of a chalky paste. • Applications: optical lenses, metallic bearing surfaces, gages. • Figure 25.17 The lapping process in lens‑making.

  19. Superfinishing • Similar to honing - uses bonded abrasive stickpressed against surface and reciprocating motion Differences with honing: * Shorter strokes * Higher frequencies * Lower pressures between tool and surface * Smaller grit sizes • Figure 25.18 Superfinishing on an external cylindrical surface.
