Silicon carbide (SiC) has been used for many engineering applications because of their high strength at high temperatures and high resistances to chemical degradation. SiC is very useful especially for a glass lens mold whose components demanded to the machining with good surface finish and low surface damage. The performance and reliability of optical components are strongly influenced by the surface damage of SiC during grinding process. Therefore, the severe process condition optimization shall be necessary for the highly qualified SiC glass lens mold. Usually the major form of damage in grinding of SiC is a crack occurs at surface and subsurface. The energy introduced in the layers close to the surface leads to the formation of these cracks. The experimental studies have been carried out to get optimum conditions for grinding of silicon carbide. To get the required qualified surface finish in grinding of SiC, the selection of type of the wheel is also important. Grinding processes of sintered SiC work-pieces is carried out with varying wheel type, depth of cut and feed using diamond wheel. The machining result of the surface roughness and the number of flaws, have been analyzed by use of surface profilers and SEM.

Grinding which is the final finishing step in the machining processes plays an important role fur precision manufacturing because it directly affect the product quality. Since the ground surface is affected by the states of grains and voids on the grinding wheel surface, the wheel should be dressed before the machined surface deteriorates over a quality limit. This paper describes a systematic approach to decide a proper dressing chance. A fabricated eddy current sensor and CCD camera are used to measure the loading on the working wheel surface and to visualize the wheel surface states respectively. The dressing chance can be properly decided through the relation between the variation of the thresholding image of the wheel and the machined surface roughness as the variation of the eddy current sensor output is greater than the detected value previously.

In this study, the ultra precision centerless grinder for ferrule grinding was designed. As the good-qualified ferrule is required a precise and fine grinding, grinding machine for ferrule must have a high accuracy and a sufficient stiffness. The centerless grinder is composed of the high damping concrete bed, grinding wheel spindle unit, regulating wheel spindle unit, feeding table and dressing unit. For a newly developed centerless grinder, hydrostatic system with high precision feeding and high stiffness was proposed. The grinding and regulating wheel spindle units were composed of hydrostatic spindle and feeding table was hydrostatic table. The prototype of hydrostatic table was manufactured and tested.

This paper describes the machining characteristics of cylindrical plunge grinding. The study investigates the process using the current signals of a spindle motor through a hall sensor. Grinding experiments were conducted under various conditions such as wheel speeds, workpiece speeds and infeed rates with a conventional vitrified bonded wheel. Analyzing the current signal of the spindle motor, a relationship between current signals and the metal removal rate in terms of the in(red rate is induced. It was also shown that a hall sensor has similar capabilities in evaluation of grinding behavior compared to the AE signals, which are useful far monitoring the grinding process.

In this study an experimental investigation was conducted to find the grinding characteristics of ceramics, STD11 and STS304 materials. The grinding force and the microscopic observation of the workpieces were obtained in surface grinding. Grinding characteristics of ceramics were inspected through the microscopic examination the cutting force, and the surface roughness. It has been found that the finding force of ceramics is relatively low as compared to that of steels and that CBN wheel has an excellent performance. The surface roughness was measured according to the feedrate and the depth of out.

For the net shape manufacturing, grinding is a important process that influences directly the accuracy and the integrity of products. We studied and researched the grinding force, surface roughness, and grinding wheel durability, according to the change of a feed speed of the table and a depth of the cut step by step with experiment that it is used to WA wheel. Workpiece materials were used STDII. The purpose of this study proposes the basic data for design of the machine tool and for controlling the machining parameters to obtain optimum performance of plunge grinding system during operation.

This paper aims to clatify the potimum grinding condition for the electroplated diamond wheel in form grinding of Sr-ferrite. The main conclusions obtained were as follows. (1) The flexural strength and surface roughness of ferrite became the highest at the peripheral wheel speed of 1700m/min. (2) In the case of depth of cut larger than 0.4mm, crack layers is induced in the ground surface, the fracture type of chips exhibits slight ductile mode in the depth of cut smaller than 0.2mm. (3) When the depth of cut exceed 0.6mm, the tool life becomes extermely short due to large chipping and brackage. However, at the depth of cut .geq. 0.05mm, the diamond grain shows abrasive wear. (4) The flexural strength and surface roughness increases in proportion to the feed rate.

In this study, experiments of high speed grinding had been earned out in a STD11 specimen for evaluating the grindability with designed CBN grinding wheels Ground surfaces were analyzed and evaluated by means of surface Integrities and wheel damages. The surface roughness and 3 dimensional profile had been used for analyzing the micro-surface integrity. The residual stress of the ground surface had been measured by the x-ray diffraction method. Also, the surface state of the ground specimens and the grinding wheels were evaluated by a metallurgical microscope and SEM system after high speed grinding in order to choose the suitable machining conditions.

In modern engineering practice, the grinding process is one of the most important and widely used operations for the precision finishing of components. In this paper, machining characteristics of external plunge grinding were investigated by using spindle motor current signal through hall sensor.

This study deals with the truing of diamond wheel fur the manufacture of micro v-shaped grooves with fine sharp edges in the grinding. Fine micro v-shaped grooves are key components to fabricate LGP(light guide plate), optical fiber connector and so on. Conventional v-shaped groove methods such as etching and lithography are difficult to make grooves with accuracy and cutting by lathe is difficult to select target materials. Therefore, as a preliminary stage to developing the grinding technology that will be expected fabrications for micro 3-dimensional structure of high effectivity and accuracy and freed up the restrictions of machinability to the materials for micro v-shaped grooves, truing is carried out with resin bond diamond wheel and electroforming diamond wheel using a cup-type truer. From the experimental results, it is found that the effects according to working direction of the cup-type truer and the restrainable methods of plastic deformation that is generated at wheel edge are examined. As a result, fine micro v-shaped diamond wheel was obtained, which are applicable to micro grinding for optical devices.
