Abstract
Structuring of the grinding wheels is a promising method to reduce the forces involved in grinding, especially during dry grinding. In this paper, one of the methods of grinding wheel structuring is presented. The structuring process was modeled to find the corresponding dressing parameters for the desired structure dimensions. The cylindrical grinding operation with the structured wheels was simulated to produce a spiral free ground surface. Afterwards, the dry grinding experiments with the structured and non-structured wheels were carried out to evaluate the efficiency of the structured wheels. The results revealed that the grinding forces can be reduced by more than 50% when the grinding wheels are structured, while the surface roughness values increase by 80%.
