| Abstract |
Aiming at solving the problems of wheel loading in dry grinding of Carbon/Epoxy
composite materials, a novel electroplated grinding wheel with controlled abrasive cluster was
developed, in which the diameter of clusters is in Φ0.2 mm to Φ1.0 mm and the interspace between
them is about 0.5 mm to 1.0 mm. A conventional electroplated grinding wheel with abrasive grains
distributed randomly was fabricated in the same way. The comparison experiments involving C/E
composite were conducted on a vertical spindle grinder with the novel and conventional grinding
wheels. The results show that the grinding forces of novel wheel developed is more lower though
little larger surface roughness, and the wheel loading phenomenon is markedly decreased compared
with conventional electroplated wheel. |
