Definitions
- This invention relates to a method of grinding a workpiece having a cylindrical surface and to apparatus for carrying out said method.
- chatter-marks can be reduced by absolute truing of the grinding wheel, but this is time consuming and expensive, especially when the grinding surface is a super-abrasive such as diamond or CBN.
- a method of grinding- a cylindrical workpiece surface in which the speed of rotation of the grinding wheel and/or the speed of rotation of the workpiece is changed one or more times during the final stage of grinding, the period of such rotational speed variation including at least part of the final dwell period in which sizing occurs, thereby to reduce chatter-marks on the workpiece.
- apparatus for grinding a cylindrical workpiece surface comprising a grinding machine having a grinding wheel, a grinding wheel feed, a grinding wheel feed controller, means for rotating the grinding wheel, a workpiece support and means for rotating the workpiece, a speed of rotation controller for the grinding wheel and for the workpiece, and means whereby, during the final stage of grinding extending into the final dwell period in which sizing occurs, the speed of rotation of the grinding wheel and/or the workpiece is changed one or more times in order to reduce chatter-marks on the workpiece.
- the method and apparatus of the invention may be applied to internal as well as external grinding.
- the speed variation effected is not dependent on vibration sensing of the grinding wheel or the workpiece.
- the rotational speed variation is preferably practised by rotational speed change which includes one or more changes in the rotational speed of the workpiece.
- any change made will usually be decelerative.
- the rotational speed of the grinding wheel is kept constant.
- the one or more rotational speed changes may be initiated either after a predetermined number of rotations of the workpiece where the number of turns per grinding cycle is controlled and/or at a predetermined feed distance before the feed position for final sizing, as indicated in more detail below.
- the speed variations effected may therefore be linear, reduce or increase at a rate relative to the above variables, or be of other controlled forms such as sinusoidal.
- the speed change is normally initiated during the slow approach to size feed and always extends into the final dwell period in which sizing occurs .
- Figure 1 is a graph showing the feed of the grinding wheel in terms of workpiece distance v time.
- Figure 2 is a much simplified diagram of a grinding machine .
- Figure 1 is a typical feed diagram for the grinding wheel in a grinding process for grinding a cylindrical workpiece.
- the grinding wheel feed includes a fine feed period 10 immediately prior to a stationary final dwell period 12 (size dwell) in which sizing occurs.
- a change in the rotational speed of the workpiece is initiated in the fine feed period, and this speed change or one or more further speed changes is extended into at least part of the final dwell period 12.
- the means 22 is preferably constituted by a servo- controller, which automatically initiates one or more changes in the workspeed at the aforesaid time and for the aforesaid period, for example dependently on the feed position, the number of turns of the workpiece in the grinding cycle, and/or component size.
- the or each change effected is preferably not sudden, but is a relatively slow change which may be linear, sinusoidal or of any other desired form.
