The application of this trimming technology for high-strength steel bars leads to thermally induced defects such as grinding burrs and residual stresses. By means of a developed and empirically validated FE model it is possible to control the temperature distribution in the workpiece. The implementation of a CBN grinding wheel along with the optimization of the cutting parameters allows a significant decrease of the thermal load in the machined bar. As a consequence, thermal defects are reduced, thus leading to a high-quality trimming process.engrindinghigh-strength steelfinite element method620621670journal article
