We explored the effect of supplying coolant from the inner side of a grinding wheel on the residual stress caused by grinding. Effect of depth of cut on grinding temperature and residual stress was also studied. Results clarified that grinding with an internal coolant supply induced a larger compressive residual stress compared to a conventional external grinding fluid supply when depth of cut was large. In addition, grinding temperature in the internal grinding fluid supply was lower than in the external grinding fluid supply, as measured by infrared thermograph camera. Findings suggested that large compressive residual stress was obtained in the case of the coolant supplied from the inner side of the grinding wheel because temperature was lower than external coolant supply.
The objective of this paper is to clarify the effect of the difference of grinding fluid supply method on grinding surface characteristics during the curved surface machining of titanium alloy. The convex and concave type workpieces were machined by internal coolant supply and external coolant supply, and the surface characteristics were compared. The internal coolant supply could supply the grinding fluid directly to the machining point through the grinding wheel pores. One nozzle or seven nozzles were used for external coolant supply. As a result, the surface roughness of the concave surface decreased by about 10 % compared with the one nozzle was used when the grinding fluid was supplied from the inner side of the grinding wheel. In the case of the convex surface, the surface roughness decreased about 20 % compared with the single nozzle was used, and it decreased about 9 % compared with the seven nozzles were used.
The objective of this paper is to clarify the effect of grinding surface characteristics in the grinding of a titanium alloy with a coolant supply from the inner side of the grinding wheel. In this paper, we selected a white aluminum oxide (WA) vitrified bonded grinding wheel and a green silicon carbide (GC) vitrified bonded grinding wheel, and compared their grinding characteristics. As a result, in the case of the GC vitrified bonded grinding wheel, the surface roughness decreased by about 54% and the compressive residual stress increased by about 128%.
