Simulation of the Surface Roughness by End Face Grinding Wheel with Ordered Abrasive Pattern

Abstract

In order to improve the grinding performance of end face grinding wheel, the ordered theory is applied to the design of grinding wheel. Based on the track equation of the end grinding, the effects of grinding parameters on the surface roughness are studied and compared with the workpiece appearance by grinding wheel with different abrasive patterns. The simulation results show that the surface roughness values are lower by the grinding wheel with phyllotactic pattern than other patterns. It will provide theoretical basis for designing abrasive ordered pattern of grinding wheel.
