Geometrical Simulation of Surface Finish Improvement in Helical Scan Grinding Method by Means of 3D-CAD Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

Estimation of mechanism of surface finish improvement in helical scan grinding, a method in which a good surface finish is obtained besides keeping a high grinding efficiency, is performed based on the virtual grinding trace using a 3D-CAD model. In three grit models, (a) a single grit on a wheel, (b) plural grits arrangement on a helical line on the wheel circumference, and (c) multiple grit arrangement in a triangular pattern, virtual grinding traces and their unevenness or surface roughness are investigated. The virtual grinding trace in helical scan grinding is made by interference of grit trajectories, and the results of the analysis are very similar to experimental results.
