Effect of the grain depth of cut on cross sectional profile - Theoretical analysis of ground surface roughness

摘要

Roughness is important criterion of ground surface. When the surface roughness is demanded to be smooth, it is required to make the grinding conditions optimum. To optimize the grinding conditions, relationship between grinding conditions and ground surface roughness must be known. Therefore, it has been attempted to reveal the effect of grinding conditions on the roughness of ground surface over the years. From previous researches, it becomes possible to estimate the ground surface roughness with statistical grinding theory. However, there are some parameters, such as wheel depth of cut and distribution of abrasive grain, are not factored in the theory. In this paper, fundamental research on cross sectional profile is carried out to consider the relationship between the wheel depth of cut and ground surface roughness.
