Abstract

The use of cubic boron nitride (CBN) over conventional abrasives in ferrous and superalloy grinding has resulted in improved manufacturing throughput and beneficial mechanical properties on workpiece surfaces. However, through the innovative use of crystal synthesis techniques, the grinding performance can be further improved over existing CBN crystals. In this study, such a new CBN crystal is developed, characterized, and its grinding performance is compared to a commercially available CBN crystal. Grinding tests are conducted in AISI M2 steel and Inconel-718 superalloy using a vitrified bond configuration with applicability in a wide range of end-use applications.
