Analysis of grinding force and elastic deformation in thread grinding process

Abstract

Considering the grinding geometry of the thread grinding dynamic contact arc length, a dynamic numerical thread grinding model has been set up on the basis of study of a single grit grinding model. The properties of grinding force and dynamic contact arc-length have been studied by means of the developed numerical model. The results have shown that the angle of helix has little effect on the dynamic contact arc-length than the wheel speed on the dynamic contact arc-length. And the wheel speed also produced a large effect on grinding force. © 2013 Wei Wang and Xianying Feng.
