Grinding Technology:
Theory and Applications of Machining with Abrasives - $119.95 each
|
Presenting a comprehensive and consistent treatment of
grinding theory and its practical utilization, this new
edition focuses on grinding as a machining process using
bonded abrasive grinding wheels as the cutting medium.
Logically organized, this
self-contained resource starts with a description of
abrasives and bonded abrasive cutting tools; then moves on
to thermal analyses of the grinding process for
conventional, creep feed, and superabrasive grinding; and
ends with methods for enhancing and optimizing of grinding
operations, simulation of grinding processes, and computer
control of grinding machines.
The perfect reference for
practicing engineers involved in the grinding process, it
will also be useful for researchers working in the field.
Features
- Features a unified and
self-contained presentation about what is known about
grinding processes and how this information can be
practically applied.
- Presents more detail on
new grain materials, creep feed conventional abrasive
wheels, superabrasive (diamond and CBN) materials and
wheels, and metal bonded superabrasive electroplated
wheels.
- Includes a more
comprehensive treatment of thermal aspects of grinding;
as well as a new chapter on dealing with fluid flow in
grinding—including flow through the grinding zone, fluid
burnout, and cooling effects.
- Contains an updated
chapter relating to grinding machine control and
optimization with a new example of model-based grinding
optimization, and future prospects for integrating
simulation into open architecture machine tools for
optimal control.
