INVESTIGATION OF SINGLE-POINT DRESSING OVERLAP RATIO AND DIAMOND-ROLL DRESSING INTERFERENCE ANGLE ON SURFACE ROUGHNESS IN GRINDING

摘要

This paper investigates the effect of both single-point and diamond-roll dressing techniques on the workpiece surface roughness in grinding. Two empirical surface roughness models are studied -one that incorporates single-point dressing parameters, and another that incorporates diamond-roll dressing parameters. For the experimental conditions used in this research, the corresponding empirical model coefficients are found to have a linear relationship with the inverse of the overlap ratio for single-point dressing and the interference angle for diamond-roll dressing. The resulting workpiece surface roughness models are then experimentally validated for different depths of cut, workpiece speeds and dressing conditions. In addition, the models are used to derive a relationship between overlap ratio for single-point dressing, and interference angle for diamond-roll dressing such that both dressing techniques produce a similar surface finish for a given material removal rate.
