Titel
Surface Finishing of Zirconium Dioxide with Abrasive Brushing Tools
Abstract
Brushing with bonded abrasives is a finishing process which can be used for the surface improvement of various materials. Since the machining mechanisms of abrasive brushing processes are still largely unknown and little predating research was done on brushing ceramic workpieces, within the scope of this work technological investigations were carried out on planar workpieces of MgO-PSZ (zirconium dioxide, ZrO2) using brushing tools with bonded grains of polycrystalline diamond. The primary goal was the reduction of grinding-related surface defects under the preservation of surface roughness valleys and workpiece form. Based on microscopy and topography measurements, the grain size sg and the brushing velocity vb were found to have a considerable influence on the processing result. Furthermore, excessive tool wear was observed while brushing ceramics.
