Grinding process is different from other machining processes such as turning, milling and drilling because the cutting edges in a grinding wheel doesn't have uniformity and acts differently on the workpiece at each grinding. This study focus on predicting the geometric error produced during surface grinding and selecting an optimal grinding condition to reduce the geometric error. To achieve the aim, the Taguchi design of experiments was applied and the S/N ratios of each grinding was used for evaluating the results. The predicted quantities by the S/N ratios were compared with the experimental results.

The Surface roughness is affected by the factors such as elements of grinding wheel, grinding conditions, and so on. Of all these factors, we studied surface roughness variation in accordance with grain size of grinding wheel and grinding depth of cut on the surface grinding. Tempered, annealed, quenched, and non-heat treated materials were used as specimen. The results obrained in these experiments are as follows: 1) The smaller the hardness is, the better the grinding surface roughness becomes. 2) Tempered materials after quenching shows the finest finished surface on grinding.

Temperature generated in the workpiece during grinding process can cause thermal damages. Therefore it is important to understand surface temperature generated during grinding process. In this paper, a theoretical and experimental investigation were performed for the grinding temperature. Grinding experiments were performed in machining center using vitrified bonded CBN cup-type wheel. The surface temperature was measured using thermocouple and calculated through a model of the partition of energy between wheel and workpiece. The residual stress and hardness of ground surface were measured. The experimental results indicate that the surface temperature was in good agreement with theoretical ones. Residual stress and hardness of ground surface were more affected by the change of table speed than the depth of cut.

The thermal deformation of a workpiece during grinding is one of the most important factors that affect a flatness of a grinding surface. The heat generated in one-pass surface grinding causes the convex deformation of a workpiece. Therefore, the ground surface represents a conacve profile. In the analysis a simple model of the temperature distribution,based on the result of a finite element method, is applied. The analyzed results are compared with experimental results in surface grinding. The main results obtained are as follows; (1) The temperature distibution of a workpiece by FEM is comparatively in good agreement with the experimental results. (2) The bending moment by generated heat cause a convex deformation of the workpiece and it reads to a concave profile of the grinding surface.

Recently, Fine Ceramics have been concerned significantly with some excellent properties and many functions as new industrial materials to the industry at alrge. For the manufacture of Fine Ceramics, sintering is essential process. Thus the most of a Fine Ceramics used for precision parts are in need of machining proces. It is, however, very difficult to manufacture the Advanced Ceramics with high efficiency because they have not only high strength and brittl- eness but also high hardness. In present research, experiments are carried out to obtain the basic knowledge of Fine Ceramics grinding with high efficiency. Representative advanced ceramics, such as A1/sub 2/0/sub 3/, Z/sub r/O/sub 2/SiC snd Si/sub 2/N/sub 4/are ground with diamond wheels using conventional surface grinding machine. This research is carried out for the purpose of saving machining technology required for manufactiring Fine Ceramics parts

Although the net-shape molding of composites is generally recommended, molded composites frequently required cutting or grinding due to the dimensional inaccuracy for precision machine elements. During the composite machining operations such as cutting and grinding, the temperature at the grinding area may increase beyond the allowed limit due to the low thermal conductivity of composites, which might degrade the matrix of composite. Therefore, in this work, the temperature at the grinding point during surface grinding of carbon fiber epoxy composite was measured. The grinding temperature and surface roughness were also measured to investigate the surface grinding characteristics of the composited. The experiments were performed both under dry and wet grinding conditions with respect to cutting speed, feed speed, depth of cut and stacking angle. From the experimental investigation, the optimal conditions for the composite plain grinding were suggested.

In this study, it is intended to investigate the effect of the grinding conditions such as table feed, down feed, cross feed of residual stress distribution. And this distribution is investigated upon the grinding direction and the its orthogonal direction at ground layers. The material is used carbon steel (SM20C) which usually used to motor axis. And in order to be considered as Bernoulli-Euler beam, the dimension of the specimen is appropriately designed. According as corroiding the ground surface, the residual stress layers are removed and strain which occured on account of unbalance of internal stress is detected by rosette-gate. Through A/D converter and computer, these values are saved and evaluated residual stress by stress-strain relation formula. Finally, these results are diagrammatized with Auto Cad. The results obtained are as follows. As the depth from the ground surface increases in grinding direction and its orthogonal direction, tensile residual stress exists in the surface, and subsequently it becomes compressive residual stress as it goes downward. As the table feed, the cross feed and the down feed increase, maximum residual stress is transformed form the tensile to the compressive.

The new square electro-magnetic chuck, which can be used for the clamping devices on a grinding machine, is developed in this study to improve the convenience of grinding works. The various kinds of structures are recommended to find the most adequate magnetic characteristics through the analytical approach using finite element methods. The analyzed results are retrofitted to solve the drawbacks of previous models step by step by considering the magnetic fields, strength and distribution of drag force, and thermal deformations of chuck such as high parallelism and flatness. Finally the best recommended models is designed to satisfy the KS specifications required fur the commercial magnetic chuck. The prototype chuck with this dimensions and structures is manufactured. For this final model, the experimental verifications are investigated whether the KS specifications are satisfied.

Recently, Silicon Nitrde ceramic is regarded as the representative engineering ceramic with the excellent mechanical properties and many functions for mechanical components and parts among various kinds of ceramics in the mechanical industry. But, during the manufacturing of engineering ceramics, there is many volumetric shrinkage coupled with a distortion of the parts which is produced. Due to the requirement for high accuracy of size, form, and surface finish of the components, machining is needed surely. Nowdays, grinding with a resin bond type diamond wheels has been generally applied to machining of the engineering ceramics in the whole world because that it can be conveniently proceeded for workers to dress of tool and made with high reliability in producing factories among many bond type super-abrasive wheels yet. It is important task for attaining prescribed mechanical components with high reliability to observe the grinding mechanism of ceramics as like generation of cracks and chipping of material during process.
