Abstract: This paper presented a new technology, which was the online wheel wear evaluation in grinding WC-Co ceramic coating by using wavelet packet decomposition. On the basis of the measurement methods, theory of online wear evaluation of wheel was introduced. And the selection principle of characteristic signals was brought forward, the grinding acceleration signal was the best choice among many characteristic signals. The time domain signal analysis method of wavelet packet decomposition was analyzed. Lastly, experiments on the wear of wheel were performed, and the experimental results showed the validity of the method.

Abstract: In traditional NC curve grinding, the grinding wheel’s rotary surface is generally not on the grinding point’s normal direction, which will bring the distortion of grinding wheel and decrease the machining precision. This paper presents a new technology, which is called the non-interference normal tracking for NC curve grinding process. By controlling the worktable to rotate in the x-y plane, the superposition between the rotary surface of the grinding wheel and the normal vector of the workpiece’s contour is realized, and the interference between the wheel’s body and the workpiece could be avoided at the same time. A mathematic model is established and an algorithm to calculate the worktable’s rotary angle is proposed. Finally, the algorithm is applied in a new-type digital curve grinder successfully. The results show that the method is reliable and effective.

Abstract: Ceramic coating materials own some advantages, for example high-rigidity, good abradability and good performance under high temperature. At the same time, ceramic coating materials are also difficult-to-machine materials. High machining precision and efficiency can be obtained in grinding WC-Co coating by cup wheel. The affection of grinding temperature is very important for grinding processing. But there is no research on grinding temperature of WC-Co coating by cup wheel. So in this paper, grinding temperature by cup wheel is researched on theory, the new concept, which is effectiveness width of arc moving heat source, is presented, and theoretical formula of grinding temperature is also built. Then experimental research on grinding temperature of WC-Co coating by cup wheel is done by use of thermocouple temperature measurement technology. The experimental results show the validity and effectivity of the theoretical formula. The affection of grinding parameters to grinding temperature is researched also.
