Mechanics of Contact in the Grinding of Steels

Abstract

The article is devoted to the consideration of the issues of contact interaction of a diamond grinding tool with the surface of the part. According to the research results, the actual contact areas were obtained, taking into account the sum of the actual contact areas of the touching bodies, through which the pressing force of the grinding wheel to the treated surface is transmitted, with elastic, plastic and elastic-plastic contacts. The obtained analytical dependences for calculating the geometric parameters of the contact of a diamond face tool with the workpiece surface being machined, allowing to describe, predict and control the power and resistance characteristics of the process on the processing conditions
