Introduction. The final quality of products is formed during finishing operations, which include the grinding process. It is known that when grinding brittle materials, the cost of grinding work increases significantly. It is possible to reduce the scatter of product quality indicators when grinding brittle materials, as well as to increase the reliability and efficiency of the operation, by choosing the optimal parameters of the technological system based on dynamic models of the process. However, to describe the regularities of the removal of particles of a brittle non-metallic material and the wear of the surface of the grinding wheel in the contact zone, the known models do not allow taking into account the peculiarities of the process in which micro-cutting and brittle chipping of the material are combined. Purpose of the work: to create a new probabilistic model for removing the surface layer when grinding brittle non-metallic materials. The task is to study the laws governing the removal of particles of brittle non-metallic material in the contact zone. In this work, the removal of material in the contact zone as a result of microcutting and brittle chipping is considered as a random event. The research methods are mathematical and physical simulation using the basic provisions of the theory of probability, the laws of distribution of random variables, as well as the theory of cutting and the theory of a deformable solid. Results and discussion. The developed mathematical models make it possible to trace the effect on material removal of the overlap of single cuts on each other when grinding holes in ceramic materials. The proposed dependences show the regularity of stock removal within the arc of contact of the grinding wheel with the workpiece. The considered features of the change in the probability of material removal upon contact of the treated surface with an abrasive tool and the proposed analytical dependences are valid for a wide range of grinding modes, wheel characteristics and a number of other technological factors. The obtained expressions make it possible to find the amount of material removal also for schemes of end, flat and circular external grinding, for which it is necessary to know the amount of removal increment due to brittle fracture during the development of microcracks in the surface layer. One of the ways to determine the magnitude of this increment is to simulate the crack formation process using a computer. The presented results confirm the prospects of the developed approach to simulate the processes of mechanical processing of brittle non-metallic materials.
Introduction. Finishing operations, in particular, cylindrical grinding, essentially form the quality parameters of products, its performance characteristics and functional suitability. At the same time, the cost of grinding work increases significantly in comparison with grinding metals, reaching an average of 20 ... 28% of the total cost of manufacturing products. The selection of the optimal parameters of the technological system based on the process simulation can improve the reliability, productivity and economic efficiency. To describe the processing of brittle nonmetallic materials, empirical dependences are mainly used, and the existing analytical models do not take into account the stochastic nature of the grinding operation and the combination of microcutting and brittle chipping when removing particles of brittle nonmetallic material and wear of the surface of the grinding tool. Purpose of the work: simulation of stock removal in the contact zone during internal grinding of brittle non-metallic materials. The task is to study the features and patterns of change in the probability of material removal when the treated surface comes into contact with an abrasive tool. In the work, the theoretical and probabilistic models are obtained, allowing to reveal the patterns of material removal in the contact zone. The models make it possible to trace the regularities of the interaction of cutting and piercing grains on the surface of the workpiece and the process of removing the allowance in the contact zone due to a combination of the phenomena of microcutting and brittle chipping, considered as a random event. The research methods are mathematical and physical simulation using the basic provisions of the theory of probability, the laws of distribution of random variables, as well as the theory of cutting and the theory of a deformable solid. Results and discussion. Data are obtained that provide a clear illustration of the patterns of material removal along the contact zone at various levels. Analysis of the results obtained shows that the peripheral speed of the tool and the rotation speed of the workpiece, which are directly included in the equation for calculating the probability of material removal, significantly affect the rate of material removal. The cross feed also has a significant effect on stock removal. A qualitative picture of the change in the probability of material removal in the contact zone during grinding of holes in brittle nonmetallic materials is obtained. The obtained patterns of change in the probability of material removal when the machined surface is in contact with an abrasive tool and analytical dependences are valid for a wide range of grinding modes, tool characteristics and other technological factors.
Introduction. Grinding remains the most efficient and effective method of final finishing that is indispensable in the production of high-precision parts. The characteristic features of grinding materials are that the removal of the material roughness of the workpiece surface occurs due to the stochastic interaction of the grains of the abrasive material with the surface of the workpiece, in the presence of mutual oscillatory movements of the abrasive tool and the workpiece being processed. During processing workpieces with abrasive tools, the material is removed by a large number of grains that do not have a regular geometry and are randomly located on the working surface. This makes it necessary to apply probability theory and the theory of random processes in mathematical simulation of operations. In real conditions, during grinding, the contact of the wheel with the workpiece is carried out with a periodically changing depth due to machine vibrations, tool shape deviations from roundness, unbalance of the wheel or insufficient rigidity of the workpiece. To eliminate the influence of vibrations in production, tools with soft ligaments are used, the value of longitudinal and transverse feeds is reduced, but all these measures lead to a decrease in the operation efficiency, which is extremely undesirable. To avoid cost losses, mathematical models are needed that adequately describe the process, taking into account the influence of vibrations on the output indicators of the grinding process. The purpose of the work is to create a theoretical and probabilistic model of material removing during finishing and fine grinding, which allows, taking into account the relative vibrations of the abrasive tool and the workpiece, to trace the patterns of its removal in the contact zone. The research methods are mathematical and physical simulation using the basic provisions of probability theory, the laws of distribution of random variables, as well as the theory of cutting and the theory of deformable solids. Results and discussion. The developed mathematical models allow tracing the effect on the removal of the material of the superimposition of single sections on each other during the final grinding of materials. The proposed dependencies show the regularity of the stock removal within the arc of contact of the grinding wheel with the workpiece. The considered features of the change in the probability of material removal when the treated surface comes into contact with an abrasive tool in the presence of vibrations, the proposed analytical dependences are valid for a wide range of grinding modes, wheel characteristics and a number of other technological factors. The expressions obtained allow finding the amount of material removal also for the schemes of end, profile, flat and round external and internal grinding, for which it is necessary to know the magnitude of relative vibrations. However, the parameters of the technological system do not remain constant, but change over time, for example, as a result of wear of the grinding wheel. To assess the state of the technological system, experimental studies are carried out taking into account the above changes over the period of durability of the grinding wheel.
