Abstract

Fluid application in grinding is getting attention as higher stock removal rates, higher surface integrity and longer wheel life are required. It is necessary to define proper conditions of application for meeting high productivity goals by lowering the specific grinding energy and reducing the temperature of the contact zone. The present study investigated the capacity of the jet pressure of a spot nozzle to improve the wear of a CBN wheel when grinding the AISI 690 superalloy. Grinding experiments were conducted with an emulsion-type cooling fluid delivered at pressure ranging from 0.1 to 4 MPa. Results show that the maximum stock removal, reached at 4 MPa, is 5 times the stock removal obtained at 0.1 MPa, while the grinding ratio at 4 MPa is 8 times that at 0.1 MPa, and there is a critical pressure (P c) around 1.5 MPa corresponding to the minimum specific grinding energy. Scanning electron microscopy of the grain tips showed that the wear mechanism shifts from breaking and dislodgment at low jet pressure to micro-fracture resulting in continuous self-sharpening of the abrasive grains. By lubricating at jet pressure close to P c, there is less thermal damage due to plowing and sliding and the resulting lower loading of the abrasive grains favors the micro-fracture of grains and thus a longer wheel life.
