Grinding wheel is a tool used in the process of grinding (grinding).

Comparison with cutting tools such as turning and milling

① Easy to machine materials that are hard, brittle, and difficult to machine with cutting tools.

② Easy to achieve dimensional accuracy required for precision machining.

③ Better surface roughness and glossiness can be obtained.

④ Due to the large number of tool tips and fast processing speed, even if the feed amount is small, it is the same.

⑤ It has a self sharpening effect and can be processed continuously for a long time.

How are grinding wheels manufactured?

The manufacturing process of grinding wheels goes through five stages: mixing, forming, sintering, finishing, and inspection.

Mixing: Mixing abrasives, binders, and chemical raw materials.

2. Forming: Place the mixed raw materials into a specific size grinding wheel mold, and press and shape them into the shape of the grinding wheel through an instrument.

3. Sintering: Place the formed grinding wheel in the kiln and let it stand for more than 1 week, followed by sintering at a high temperature of 1300 degrees Celsius.

4. Fine trimming: The sintered grinding wheel is trimmed to achieve the correct dimensional accuracy and shape.

5. Inspection: Carefully conduct tests for damage, hardness, balance, and rotation to ensure the accuracy of the grinding wheel and avoid accidents.

The Three Basic Elements of Grinding Wheel Composition

1. Grinding particles: responsible for cutting.

2. Binder: Fixed abrasive particles.

3. Air hole: Helps eliminate chips and dissipate heat.
