Temperatures and wear mechanisms in dressing of vitrified bonded grinding wheels

摘要

For the first time dressing temperatures were measured directly in the contact zone of grinding and diamond dressing tool. With average temperatures of 400℃ and maximum temperatures of 810℃ without cooling lubricant, the need to cool the dressing tool sufficiently is affirmed. For a diamond dressing tile and form rollers in contact with vitrified bonded corundum and CBN wheels, the main grit wear mechanisms were adhesions instead of breakage or high volumetric splintering. Extensive analyses proved that components of the grinding wheel bonding and abrasives were molten during the dressing process and solidified amorphously. This verifies high peak surface pressures and flash temperatures.
