Summary: | This paper reports on the research results of surface integrity of the
workpiece in creep-feed grinding on the high speed tool steel. The creepfeed grinding is an advanced abrasive process widely used in industry of
complex and heavy engineering products. An experimental investigation of
the fundamental characteristics of surface metallurgy and surface
roughness is carried out. The metallurgical properties were determined by
an optical microscope, and through: microstructure, microhardness, cracks
and burns. The surface roughness was determined with multiple important
roughness parameters through scanning the surface topography (roughness
average, mean roughness depth, maximum roughness depth and profile
bearing length ratio). The results show that the grinding surface integrity is
acceptable with good material removal rate, so that the creep-feed grinding
process is an excellent choice for efficient and quality material removal.
However, creep-feed grinding is not suitable for the final machining because
of the possible metallurgical alterations due to high thermal load. |
