India’s manufacturing sector is the mainstay of its economy and is projected to touch $1 trillion by 2025. The government plans to create as many as 100 million skilled jobs in the manufacturing sector by raising its share of GDP from 16 to 25 percent. If the “Make in India” vision has to become a reality organizations need to undergo major transformation across their processes, by introducing new and innovative technologies. The multiple emerging technologies are: Internet of Things; Big Data; mobility; cloud; analytics; 3D and visual simulation; and mechatronics. All these technologies are creating waves of change across all industries. These technologies result in zero downtimes, improved profitability, enhanced productivity and optimized resource utilization. By connecting machines to the internet via software, data is produced and insight into the manufacturing process is gained. These machines become part of an intelligent network that can automate information and action to optimize plant floor performance. In this context, the views of five stakeholders of Micromatic Grinding Technologies are being presented.

    CHAPTER 2- ABRASIVE GRINDING PROCESSES. LEARNING OBJECTIVES D Understand the types of different grinding machines D Techniques of grinding D Various application of grinding machines -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Classification of Grinding Processes. Grinding machines can be best classified according to the type of surfaces they are used to produce. In order to bring the job to the required shape, size and surface finish the surplus stock is removed either by feeding the job against the revolving wheel or by forcing the revolving wheel against the job. Conventional grinding machines can be broadly classified as Surface grinding machine Cylindrical grinding machine Internal grinding machine Tool and cutter grinding machine SURFACE GRINDING MACHINE Basically there are four different types of surface grinding machines characterised by the movement of their tables and the orientation of grinding wheel spindles as follows: Horizontal spindle & reciprocating table Vertical spindle & reciprocating table Horizontal spindle & rotary table Vertical spindle & rotary table Figure 1: Horizontal spindle and reciprocating table Complied by: Jagdeesha T, Assistant Professor, Mech Engg Dept., National Institute of Technology, Calicut Figure 2: a) Transverse Grinding b) Plunge Grinding Vertical Spindle reciprocating table grinder This grinding machine with all working motions is shown in Fig. 3a. The grinding operation is similar to that of face milling on a vertical milling machine. In this machine a cup shaped wheel grinds the workpiece over its full width using end face of the wheel as shown in Fig 3b. This brings more grits in action at the same time and consequently a higher material removal rate may be attained than for grinding with a peripheral wheel.
  • Manufacturing Glossary

    Manufacturing Glossary

    MANUFACTURING GLOSSARY Aging – A change in the properties of certain metals and alloys that occurs at ambient or moderately elevated temperatures after a hot-working operation or a heat-treatment (quench aging in ferrous alloys, natural or artificial aging in ferrous and nonferrous alloys) or after a cold-working operation (strain aging). The change in properties is often, but not always, due to a phase change (precipitation), but never involves a change in chemical composition of the metal or alloy. Abrasive – Garnet, emery, carborundum, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, diamond, cubic boron nitride, or other material in various grit sizes used for grinding, lapping, polishing, honing, pressure blasting, and other operations. Each abrasive particle acts like a tiny, single-point tool that cuts a small chip; with hundreds of thousands of points doing so, high metal-removal rates are possible while providing a good finish. Abrasive Band – Diamond- or other abrasive-coated endless band fitted to a special band machine for machining hard-to-cut materials. Abrasive Belt – Abrasive-coated belt used for production finishing, deburring, and similar functions.See coated abrasive. Abrasive Cutoff Disc – Blade-like disc with abrasive particles that parts stock in a slicing motion. Abrasive Cutoff Machine, Saw – Machine that uses blade-like discs impregnated with abrasive particles to cut/part stock. See saw, sawing machine. Abrasive Flow Machining – Finishing operation for holes, inaccessible areas, or restricted passages. Done by clamping the part in a fixture, then extruding semisolid abrasive media through the passage. Often, multiple parts are loaded into a single fixture and finished simultaneously. Abrasive Machining – Various grinding, honing, lapping, and polishing operations that utilize abrasive particles to impart new shapes, improve finishes, and part stock by removing metal or other material.See grinding.

    5.1 GRINDING Definitions

    UNIT-V GRINDING AND BROACHING 5.1 Grinding Definitions Cutting conditions in grinding Wheel wear Surface finish and effects of cutting temperature Grinding wheel Grinding operations Finishing Processes Introduction Finishing processes 5.1 GRINDING Definitions Abrasive machining is a material removal process that involves the use of abrasive cutting tools. There are three principle types of abrasive cutting tools according to the degree to which abrasive grains are constrained, bonded abrasive tools: abrasive grains are closely packed into different shapes, the most common is the abrasive wheel. Grains are held together by bonding material. Abrasive machining process that use bonded abrasives include grinding, honing, superfinishing; coated abrasive tools: abrasive grains are glued onto a flexible cloth, paper or resin backing. Coated abrasives are available in sheets, rolls, endless belts. Processes include abrasive belt grinding, abrasive wire cutting; free abrasives: abrasive grains are not bonded or glued. Instead, they are introduced either in oil-based fluids (lapping, ultrasonic machining), or in water (abrasive water jet cutting) or air (abrasive jet machining), or contained in a semisoft binder (buffing). Regardless the form of the abrasive tool and machining operation considered, all abrasive operations can be considered as material removal processes with geometrically undefined cutting edges, a concept illustrated in the figure: The concept of undefined cutting edge in abrasive machining. Grinding Abrasive machining can be likened to the other machining operations with multipoint cutting tools. Each abrasive grain acts like a small single cutting tool with undefined geometry but usually with high negative rake angle. Abrasive machining involves a number of operations, used to achieve ultimate dimensional precision and surface finish.
  • Grinding Machine Construction Types of Grinders

    Grinding Machine Construction Types of Grinders

    Grinding machine A grinding machine is a machine tool used for producing very fine finishes or making very light cuts, using an abrasive wheel as the cutting device. This wheel can be made up of various sizes and types of stones, diamonds or of inorganic materials. For machines used to reduce particle size in materials processing see grinding. Construction The grinding machine consists of a power driven grinding wheel spinning at the required speed (which is determined by the wheel’s diameter and manufacturer’s rating, usually by a formula) and a bed with a fixture to guide and hold the work-piece. The grinding head can be controlled to travel across a fixed work piece or the workpiece can be moved whilst the grind head stays in a fixed position. Very fine control of the grinding head or tables position is possible using a vernier calibrated hand wheel, or using the features of NC or CNC controls. Grinding machines remove material from the workpiece by abrasion, which can generate substantial amounts of heat; they therefore incorporate a coolant to cool the workpiece so that it does not overheat and go outside its tolerance. The coolant also benefits the machinist as the heat generated may cause burns in some cases. In very high-precision grinding machines (most cylindrical and surface grinders) the final grinding stages are usually set up so that they remove about 2/10000mm (less than 1/100000 in) per pass - this generates so little heat that even with no coolant, the temperature rise is negligible. Types of grinders These machines include the Belt grinder, which is usually used as a machining method to process metals and other materials, with the aid of coated abrasives.

    CNC Grinding [email protected]

    Developing The “Sweet Spot” In Grinding By Steven Kendjelic CNC Grinding [email protected] - 1 - Preface Various methods have been employed in the effort to grind difficult to machine materials. The milling and broaching process’s generated high tooling costs and required secondary operations to remove burrs. Surface grinding while an accurate process, was slow and did not always provide a feasible cycle time. With the small incremental infeed and limited part cooling, thermal damage resulted when material removal rates were increased. In Electro Chemical Grinding (ECG), the electric current passing from the wheel (cathode) to the work piece (anode) removes material 80% by electrolytic action and the other 20% through mechanical action using an abrasive wheel. While the material removal rates are as much as 60% faster than surface grinding the economic costs of electrolyte and disposal usually make this the non-preferred method. Similarly, Electro Chemical Discharge Grinding (ECDG) follows the same basic principles, however, the abrasive grinding wheel is replaced by a graphite wheel. Both processes permit low machining temperatures and forces used on hard materials with minimal burrs. This process is limited, however, to tolerances of +/- .002 in. or more while the edge of the work piece features edge degradation. Recently the author has used a steel core, direct plated uncoated Cubic Boron Nitride grain in the ECG process, which eliminated the form-dressing requirements. Nonetheless, closer part tolerances will require true grinding operations. Electro Chemical Machining has also been experimented with for dressing metal bond grinding wheels. In a conventional production grinding application the dressing of the wheel requires a dedicated off line electro chemical machining station due to the process requirements and electrolyte solution.

    Grinding Grinding Is the Most Common Form of Abrasive Machining. It Is Acutting Process Which Engages an Abrasive Tool Whose

    Grinding Grinding is the most common form of abrasive machining. It is acutting process which engages an abrasive tool whose cutting elements are grains of abrasive material known as grit. The grits are held together by a suitable bonding material to give shape of an abrasive tool. Advantages of grinding • dimensional accuracy • good surface finish • good form and locational accuracy • applicable to both hardened and unhardened material. Applications of grinding •surface finishing • slitting and parting • descaling, deburring • stock removal (abrasive milling) • finishing of flat as well as cylindrical surface • grinding of tools and cutters and resharpening of the same .
