“…Laser conditioning is a novel, non-contact approach that may be used with a wide range of abrasives and bonding materials [78]. Laser-based thermal procedures utilize high-energy-density laser beams to ablate particular regions on abrasive tool surfaces so that materials within designed textural regions can be eliminated by melting, heating, vaporization, plasma generation, ablation of grits and bonds, or evaporation [79,80]. A common experimental setup for laser structuring is show in Figure 10 [81].…”

Creating textures on abrasive wheels is a strategy that allows a significant improvement in grinding operations. The reduction of the internal stresses in the workpiece and the temperature during the grinding operation generates an increase in the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece and a longer tool life. Textured abrasive wheels can be produced in many different ways. Depending on the processing method, the dimensional accuracy of the tool and its applicability is changed. Some methods can produce tools with three-dimensional grooves; there are also methods that are employed for the re-texturing of grooves after the grooved zone wears out. In the literature, the benefits of textured grinding wheels over traditional wheels have been extensively discussed. However, information on the particularities of texturing methods is still lacking. To clarify the advantages, limitations, and main advances regarding each of the groove production methods, the authors of this article carried out a systematic review. The objective of this work is to establish the factors that are affected by groove production methods and the technological advances in this area. The benefits and drawbacks of various grooving techniques are then reviewed, and potential study areas are indicated.
