Elsevier HB_ModDress_Grind_TechV2: Processes, Machines, and Practical Applications

Handbook of Modern Dressing and Grinding Technologies Volume 2: Processes, Machines, and Practical Applications covers every facet necessary for a deep understanding of modern dressing, tool conditioning, and grinding processes. In addition to discussing the theoretical and fundamental aspects of these processes, the book also provides, via case studies, an extensive examination of their contemporary industrial applications. Chapters discuss both mechanical (stationary and rotary diamond tools; resin- and metal-bonded superabrasive grinding wheels) and non-mechanical (electro-chemical; thermal; ultrasonic) dressing processes. External cylindrical and centerless grinding are each investigated as well, as are internal cylindrical and surface grinding. Gear, tool, free form, jig, and cut-off grinding are also each given substantial coverage, as are monitoring and optimization techniques. Outlines the fundamental aspects of dressing and grinding processes and their real-world applications in industrial contexts Numerous case studies provide real-world insight on the selection of ideal machining parameters and dressing and grinding tools, based on the workpiece material and quality requirements Discusses contemporary dressing and grinding machines, providing insight on their specific requirements, characteristics, and best use cases Covers a broad array of different grinding techniques, both mechanical and non-mechanical, as well as monitoring and optimization methods
