Experimental Studies on Grinding of Titanium Alloy with SG Wheels

摘要

The grinding process has been investigated in the machining of titanium alloy with conventional grinding wheel and SG grinding wheel respectively. The machinability discussed here includes grinding force, surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, grinding ratio, grinding-wheel wear and grinding-wheel life. The SG grinding wheel is found to possess particularly good grinding properties and is more suitable for grinding titanium alloy when compared with conventional abrasive tools.
