Abstract
In order to increase the peripheral speed of grinding wheels of size of Ø 500 × 18 × Ø 200 mm for precise hard metallic surface finishing from conventional 80 m.s-1 up to 138 m.s-1 while still ensuring their safety and reliability, the critical locations in the grinding wheel were evaluated using the finite element analysis. The microstructure of grinding wheel was revealed using the materialographic techniques and the scanning electron microscope images were recorded in the back-scattered electrons mode. The image analysis was used on recorded micrographs for separation of individual material components, i.e. an abrasive, a binder, and pores, and to extract their geometries and spatial relationships. Subsequently, the influence of different filling agents (Young's modulus of 5, 10, 20, and 40 GPa) was studied, considering both surface dipping and bulk filling treatments.
