Surface Quality Effects Investigation of Micro-Grinding Soda-Lime Glass

Abstract:

This paper presents a micro-grinding experiment on soda-lime glass to study the surface quality effective factors during micro grinding on hard brittle materials. The process of micro-grinding on soda-lime glass is showed in this paper and micro-grinding equipments are designed, fz(feed rate), ap (grinding depth), vg(Grinding speed) in micro-grinding brittle materials and their effects to surface quality have been discussed by experiments which were carried out on a desktop micro machine developed by NEU. Results proved that fz is the most important factor to the surface quality, and low surface roughness could be achieved by high vg and low fz in micro-grinding soda-lime glass.
