Abstract
High efficiency and high surface integrity grinding of fused silica lens used in the ultraviolet (UV) laser transmission equipments is highly demanded. It is necessary to decrease the undeformed chip thickness for producing better surface integrity. We conducted creep feed grinding (CFG) and conventional shallow cut grinding (SCG) experiments of fused silica with a resin bond diamond wheel. Experiment results shows that owing to thinner undeformed chip thickness, the normal grinding force, radial wheel wear and P-V value of surface roughness of CFG are smaller than those of SCG at the same MRR. At the same table speed, surface roughness decreased with the increase of MRR in both CFG and SCG as a result of decreased undeformed chip thickness which is attributed to the elasticity of resin bond.
