A flexible disk grinding process model was developed based on the dynamic relationship proposed by Kurfess and the influence of the major system parameters which potentially affect the grinding process was studied. Due to the process complexities, several new parameters were assumed to be kinematically dependent on the geometric layouts of the process. Different process stages had been defined depending on the kinematic relationships between the grinding disk and workpiece. A trend of depth of cut was simulated using the proposed model and compared with the empirically measured data in two dimensions. Due to a poor prediction capability of the first model, a modified model was proposed and a better performance has been proved to reveal a closer description of processed surface quality. Also a deflection length has been verified using a different analytical approach.

A variable cutting speed control model was developed to be implemented for the flexible disk grinding process Control algorithm was based on the error referred by the discrepancy between current disk angle and intended one that are pro-posed to produce desired resulting depth of cut. Controller was implemented in two different aspect One was to initiate the control law from the beginning while the other was to activate as soon as the disk start to produce ground surface i.e. The beginning of the between edges stage. Several performance analysis were conducted comparing various process parameters such as cutting force disk angle depth of cut and disk speed with respect to process transition time Tentative results revealed that controller implemented from the earlier stages of the process showed better performance than the other revealed that controller implemented from the earlier stages of the process showed better performance that the other.

In this study, a new model for flexible disk grinding process will be proposed. A grinding mechanism with a grinding disk attached to the rubber platen has been introduced. Since the spinning axis is fixed and only the disk is deflected with respect to this axis, earlier model is not adequate to represent this proces. A new dynamic process model includes an assumption that the disk is deflected locally around the middle of its radial span between the spinning axis and the disk tip instead of several continuous deflection points along the radial span of the disk. Detailed kinematic analysis is proposed as for the removed portion during the process. Cutting force comonent and depth of cut profile trend is compared with the measured result.

Even though a flexible disk grinding process was often applied to enhance the product quality, it produced non-flat zone in the beginning and the exit (end) area. Since latter area is susceptible to poor product quality with burn mark, careful analysis is required to cope with such degradation. The flexible disk grinding exit stage was analyzed for workpiece length, wheel speed, depth of cut and feed. The exit stage qualities defined as exit stage ratio and exit stage angle or slope was characterized. A neural network application results reveled that exit stage characteristics was predicted more accurately without workpiece dimension with minimum error of 1.3%.

The working surface of a flexible grinding disk was characterized by means of an image processing, in which a picture of a disk surface was taken by the CCD camera and analyzed with the personal computer. As process conditions, depth of cut was changed to be 2 and 4 mm. From the captured image circles marked on the disk was regenerated using the edges detected with scale space filtering. In order to correlate the level of deformation to the distortion of the circles, intervals between each circle have been analyzed. Notable correlation has been observed between the intervals and the process conditions.

A flexible disk grinding process model has been implemented with varying disk orientation with respect to workpiece surface along with variable feed rate. Before implementing arbitrary disk orientation and translation, disk angle and feed rate variation have been implemented. The disk angle was changed with constant angular velocity only in the entrance stage. The effect of the variable feed rate was added to the geometric schematic. The feed rate was changed either from the entrance stage or from the between edges stage and process performance was evaluated. Effect of changing both angle end feed rate has been also analyzed. Disk trend showing actual disk deflection has also been visualized.

Disk grinding was often applied to deburring process in order to enhance the final product quality. Inherent chamfering capability of the flexible disk grinding process in the early stage was analyzed with respect to various process parameters including workpiece length, wheel speed, depth of cut and feed. Initial chamfered edge defined as arc zone was characterized with local radius of curvature. Averaged radius and arc zone ratio was well evaluated using neural network system. Additional neural network analysis adding workpiece length showed enhance performance in predicting arc zone ratio and curvature radius with reduced error rate. A process condition design parameter was estimated using remaining input and output parameters with the prediction error rate lower than 2.0% depending on the relevant input parameter combination and neural network structure composition.

Inherent dynamic interaction between flexible disk and workpiece creates partially non-flat surface profile. A flat zone was defined using minimum depth of engagement. Several key parameters were defined to explain the characteristics of the zone. Process conditions including disk rotation speed, initial depth of cut and feed speed were varied to produce product profile database. Correlation between key factors was examined to find the characteristic dependencies. Trends of key parameters were displayed and explained. Higher flat zone ratio was observed for lower depth of cut and higher disk rotation speed. Ratio of minimum depth of cut against target depth of cut increased for higher feed speed and disk rotation speed but was insensitive to the depth of cut variation. The process transition was visualized by continuously displaying instantaneous orientation of the deflected disk and the location of key parameters were clearly marked for comparison.

An image processing method was applied to characterize a shape of the flexible grinding disk. A disk surface image was taken by CCD camera. Depth of cut was changed to be 2 and 4mm. Circles marked on the disk were captured to extract the key features of the deflection. Notable correlation has been observed between the intervals and the process conditions. Same methodology has been applied to check the symmetry of the human face. Tentative results revealed that symmetry could be checked using the filtered face image.

In order to clarify detailed mechanism of the flexible disk grinding system, workpiece length was introduced and its performance was evaluated. Flat zone ratio increased as the workpiece length increased. Increasing wheel speed and depth of cut also enhanced process performance by producing larger flat zone ratio. Neural network system was successfully applied to predict minimum depth of engagement and flat zone ratio. An additional input parameter as workpiece length to the neural network system enhanced the prediction performance by reducing error rate. By rearranging the Input combinations to the network, the workpiece length was precisely predicted with the prediction error rate lower than 2.8% depending on the network structure.
