Shot peening is widely used in forming long panels and sheaths. Due to impact by shot on the processed surface, a specific microgeometry is formed, the characteristic feature of this microgeometry are the numerous dimples as the traces of shot impact with different diameters and depths. A presence of these dimples causes deterioration of the surface roughness parameters. Therefore, after shot peening the mandatory requirement is the implementation of surface grinding with flap wheels for partial removal of the dimples. The size of the assigned allowance for grinding depends on the quality requirements of the part surface. At the same time, the depths of the remaining dimples are determined by the part surface roughness requirements. After grinding, the new surface microgeometry is formed, as a combination of micro-roughness from previous types of processing and the remained dimples in result of shot peening. In this work the microgeometry formation of surface layer of the samples after shot peen forming and subsequent grinding with flap wheels was analysed. The parameters of surface roughness were measured by the method of three-dimensional optical scanning. In the measurement result, the mathematical model of the surface micro-profile formation was formulated, the analytical dependences of the position of the center plane and the arithmetic mean deviation of profile were obtained.
