In this paper, we present a method for the inspection of diamond wheels. In total, six items, including height, radius, and angle, need to be checked during the manufacturing of a diamond wheel. Automatic inspection through image processing is presented in this paper. First, a contour corresponding to the boundary of the diamond wheel is extracted from an image. Next, control points are selected by processing the contour. Seven control points are detected and used for the computation of the required item. Detailed procedures for the computation of the height, radius, and angle using control points are presented in this paper. Experimental results show the feasibility of the presented method.

In this study, through the experimental results of grinding ratio, grinding force and surface roughness with the obtained wear amount of diamond wheel and ceramic material during the grinding process, the following conclusions could be found. In the case of $Si_3N_4$, the wear of diamond wheel is large while the grinding force is stable and the range of change in surface roughness is small. for the case of $AL_2O_3$ and $ZrO_3$, while the wear of diamond wheel is getting smaller, the grinding force is increasing but the value of surface roughness is decreasing. For grinding with the vitrified bond wheel, it seems that the self-sharpening can be found for $Si_3N_4$ and the glazing effect of the cutting edge for $AL_2O_3$ and $ZrO_3$.

2219 aluminum alloy bonded diamond wheels containing intermetallic compounds were fabricated by powder metallurgy method. Nickel and titanium were added in aluminum matrix piece. The hot pressing condition was $600^{\circ}C$ and 20 Mpa in the furnace of the electric resistance type. The mechanical properties and grinding tests were carried out to confirm the wheel performance. Aluminum oxide ceramics were chosen for use in the grinding tests. The test proved that the heat resistance 2219 aluminum bonded diamond wheel containing 15 wt% nickel and 15 wt% titanium respectively showed the best performance.

Ferrite is widely used in the material of magnetic head, but is difficult of grinding because of their brittleness and hardness. Therefore, diamond wheel with superabrasive is required for surface grinding of this brittle material. But the conventional dressing method can not apply to the diamond wheel with superabrasive. In this study describes a newly proposed method for carrying out effective inprocess dressing of diamond wheel with superabrasive. Using the IEDD the surface roughness of workpiece was improved and grinding force was very low. Resently IEDD is good method to obtain the efficiency grinding and surface grinding of brittle materials.

Recently the use of ceramic materals has been greatly increased in the industries. But machining of the ceramics is quite unproductive because of their high stength,high hardness,and brittleness. The efficiency of the grinding operation of ceramics depends on the preparation of diamond grinding wheel, i.e.,truning and dressing. This paper describes some experimental results on the dressing conditions of diamond grinding wheel. The dressing performance is evaluated by the magnitude of normal grinding force. The better dressed wheels result in the lower normal grinding forces. The dressing performances of copper plate and aluminum oxide dressing stick are compared. The optimum dressing conditions including the grit size of dressing sticks, the depth of the dressing operation, and the dressing speed qre determined.

In this paper, a pulsed picosecond laser dressing method for bronze-bonded diamond wheel is studied systematically and comprehensively. The picosecond laser pulse ablation experiment is carried out, and the ablation thresholds of bronze-bonded and diamond abrasive particle are measured respectively. The results indicate that the single-pulse ablation thresholds of bronze-bonded are 0.89J/cm², 0.24J/cm² during strong/weak ablation stages. And the multi-pulse ablation thresholds of diamond abrasive particle are 1.69J/cm², 0.49J/cm² during strong/weak ablation stages. Obviously, diamond grains have less thermal damage during the process of gentle ablation. The diamond grains of the grinding wheel surface are graphitized during laser dressing. The bronze-bonded is relatively smooth and organizational stability, and the diamond grits have suitable prominent height, which are beneficial to maintain the good grinding performance of dressed bronze-bonded diamond grinding wheels.

This investigation reports the grinding characteristics of titanium alloy(Ti-6AI-4V). Grinding experiments were performed at various grinding conditions. The grinding forces were measured to investigate the grindability of titanium alloy with the five different wheels including Green carbide, Alumina, Resin Diamond, Resin CBN and Vitrified CBN. To investigate the grinding characteristics of titanium alloy grinding force, force ratio, specific grinding energy and grinding-ratio were measured. Surface roughness was also measured with tracer and the ground surfaces were observed with SEM Residual stress measurement was conducted on the X-Ray Diffractometer. Force ratio of grinding of titanium alloy was very lower than that of grinding of SKD-11 Surface roughness with Resin Diamond wheel was a little larger and rougher surface than that with other wheels Grinding ratio of titanium alloy was a little lower than that of other materials. Grinding ratio of titanium alloy with Diamond wheel was almost six times larger than that With CBN wheel. As a result of five different wheels, the most excellent wheel in grinding of Titanium alloy was Resin Diamond wheel.

The characteristics of grinding and wear behavior of diamond wheel for grinding ceramic materials was investigated in this study. In case of $Si_3N_4$, the wear of wheel was large, the finding force was relatively stable and the fluctuation of surface roughness n small. On the other hand in case of $Al_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2$, the wear of wheel and surface roughness were decreasing, the grinding force was increasing. During grinding with vitrified bond wheel, $Si_3N_4$ shows renewal of cutting edge while $Al_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2$ show glazing phenomenon of cutting grains. We have found that it possible to observe the behavior of grinding wheel by grinding ratio, grinding resistance, surface roughness and cutting edge ratio. Through the grinding experiments, it was found that grinding life of diamond wheel is 20 times for $Si_3N_4$, and 40 times fir $Al_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2$.

In this study, experiments were carried out to investigate the characteristics of grinding and wear process of diamond wheel grinding ceramic materials. Normal component of grinding resistance was decreasing while increase of spindle speed. The resistance of vitrified bond wheel was less then that of resinoid bond wheel because of imbedded large holes on the surface of cutting edge. Surface roughness was decreasing while increase of spindle speed. The surface roughness after using vitrified bond wheel was less than that of resinoid bond wheel because of small elastic deformation. After continuous grinding of ceramics, cutting edge ratio of resinoid bond wheel decreases. For the case of vitrified bond wheel, cutting edge ratio does not change.
