Grinding tool surface characterization
Abstract
Grinding tool topography is one of the several key aspects of the modelling of a grinding process. Simplifying it could mean less processing time needed, but it can lead to inaccurate simulation results. Considering that, this research aims to develop a reliable method for NC-grinding processes with abrasive mounted points, describing the grinding tool surface using a single profile of kinematic cutting edges instead of its whole topography. In order to achieve this, numerical and empirical experiments were conducted proving the feasibility of the model to implement it for future simulations.
