Photometric Analysis of Chips after Grinding Different Steel

Abstract

The characteristic feature of the grinding process is that the removal of the metal envelope is carried out with the help of separate abrasive grains. The result of this is the formation of a great number of chips. The analysis of these chips after grinding is of great interest first of all from the point of view of the study of the cutting mechanics while grinding, the formation of the chip surface and the exposure of geometric features of the zone of plastic deformation.The article presents a fundamental approach to the in-depth physical study of the grinding process with modern devices. An absolutely new approach to the physics of interconnection of a cutter and a blank is described, which also considers, apart from the traditional chip formation, the micrometallurgical processes, which result in coagulated microstructures. The results of the research can be used in mathematical models of grinding process which describe the mechanics of interconnection of the abrasive and work material.
