Optimization design of grinding wheel topography for high efficiency grinding

In view of the limitation of prior topography models of the grinding wheel, a new method for optimization design of grinding wheel topography is advanced. The optimization model can be used to optimize the topography in accordance with machining demands and grinding parameters as well as optimize grinding parameters in accordance with the topography and machining demands. Furthermore, a superabrasive slotted grinding wheel is designed as a practical application of the optimization model and a creep-feed deep grinding experiment is carried out to verify the optimization results.
