Abrasive Machining Processes
Abrasive machining is one of the oldest forms of metal removal. It is also one of the most important. Abrasive machining can produce surface finishes ranging from rough to extremely fine.
Abrasive machining is a process where chips are formed by small cutting edges on abrasive particles.

Abrasive Grain Size
Grains are separated by mechanical sieving machines. The number of openings per linear inch in the sieve(or screen) through which the particles can pass determines the grain size.– Typical classifications:
Course, medium, and fine Silicon Carbides range from 2-240 in size Aluminum Oxides range from 4-240 in size
– 600 range are generally used in honing or lapping operations

The Grinding Process
One process, which utilizes abrasive machining, is the grinding process. – A machining process where the abrasives used are
bonded together into a wheel. The grinding wheel is the cutting tool in this process. In grinding, high precision and tight tolerances are possible. Typical tolerances associated with this process are +/- .0001.” Product examples include bearings, machining fixtures, shafts, and precision measurement gauges.

Chip Formation
Chips in this process are formed by the same mechanism of compression and shear as other machining processes.
As the grains or abrasives become dull, the cutting forces increase. The increase in the cutting force causes the grains to plow and rub rather than cut. As the plowing and rubbing increases, the grains fracture at the cutting edge to revile a new cutting edge.

The Tool: Grinding Wheels
The spacing of particles with respect to one another is called the structure of the wheel. Wheel structure can be open, medium, or dense.– “Dense structure is used for hard materials, for high
speed grinding operations, and also for producing fine finishes and tight tolerances.”
– “Open structure is used for high contact area, grinding of tough materials, and high stock removal rates.”
» Hardness - resistance to penetration
» Toughness - ability of a metal to absorb energy without failure.

Wheel Bonding Agents
Vitrified - composed of clay and other ceramic substances. Abrasive particles are mixed with wheel material then pressed together and fired in a kiln.
Resiniod or phonolic - Plastic compound wheels designed for a wide variety of applications. This is a bit more flexible than other wheels.
![Page 18: Abrasive](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081802/555be6ecd8b42a33078b4f17/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Wheel Bonding Agents
Silicate - This bond uses silicate of soda as the bonding agent. Wheels are formed then baked at 500F for a day or longer. They are not as strong as vitrified-bonded wheels. Because they are not as strong, abrasive grains fracture more easily. This results in lower operating temperatures which can be a positive factor depending on the application of the wheel.

Wheel Bonding Agents
Shellac - Abrasives are mixed with shellac, heated (330 F) and pressed or rolled into the desired shape. These wheels are thin, elastic, and strong.
Rubber - High speed wheels with a considerable amount of flexibility. Typically these wheels will operate at speeds of up to 16,000 ft/min.

Grinding Wheel Operating Procedures
Truing - Restores the original geometry to the grinding wheel. It also can be used to ensure the wheel is running concentric with the spindle of the grinding machine.
Dressing - Exposes a new cutting surface on the grinding wheel.
Balancing - Typically performed on large and diamond wheels this procedure ensures the wheel is running true with the axis of rotation.

Cutting Fluid
Cutting fluid is an important factor in the grinding process.
It assists in:– Washing away chips,
– Keeping the wheel from becoming clogged,
– Reduces operating temperatures.

Grinding Machines
Grinding operation on all machines can be accomplished in three ways:– In-feed - moving the wheel into the work
– Cross feed - traversing the wheel across the work
– Plunge feed - wheel is forced in on the radius of the work. This is similar to form turning on a lathe.
