Development Trend of Grinding Technology

With the emergence of new materials with high strength, high hardness and high wear resistance, grinding has presented precision machining properties. The emergence of super abrasive grinding wheel has created the condition to enlarge the application range of grinding and promote the development of high efficiency grinding, so the development of high efficiency grinding technology is becoming particularly important and urgent.

Ultrahigh speed grinding can achieve ductile grinding for brittle materials, and also has good grinding performance for hard-to-grind material, which shows great advantages than the ordinary grinding. While the key technology to the implementation of ultra-high speed grinding requires us to shorten the difference with foreign ultra-high speed grinding, and make it possible to use ultra-high speed grinding in the industrial production. We still need to develop ultra-high speed grinding spindle unit manufacturing technology. And we also need to further study on mechanism and craft of ultra-high speed grinding. 

Grinding is widely used in machinery manufacturing, and the applications of automobile and aerospace are particularly important. With the wide applications of new materials with high hardness, high strength, high wear resistance and high functionality, the grinding technology is moving in the direction of high speed high efficiency, low surface roughness, precision and intelligence. With the development and application of new type ultra-high speed grinding wheel, high-speed high-power spindle unit manufacturing, new type grinding fluid, grinding wheel dressing and related technologies such as grinding CNC, intelligent technology, the development prospect of high speed and ultra-high speed grinding technology will be very broad.
