On-the-machine measurement of surface roughness in a surface grinding process

평면연삭 공정에서의 표면 거칠기 기상계측

This paper deals with an on-the-machine measurement method for roughness of ground surface by using flux ratio of scattered lights. A sensor and control unit is developed so as to e applied to surface grinding processes. The performance of the sensor is compared with that of stylus. The experimental investigation shows that not onlythe sensor has good performance as a surface roughness sensor but alsothe sensor is very useful for monitoring grinding condition in order to detect ill-conditioned grinding or dressing time.
