Investigation of the influence of the grinding wheel editing process on the process performance

The article deals with issues related to the impact of circle editing methods on the performance of the process. The main parameters of the grinding wheel profile depending on the editing methods are considered. The method of constructing the envelope of a single profile of the surface roughness, which was determined by the following parameters: the average height of roughness, average step of roughness of the profile vertices that fall in a given interval between two diametrical sections; maximum height of roughness profile, hmax; the relative reference length of the profile, as well as the dimensionless criterion .It is established that the higher value of the criterion characterizes the greater cutting capacity of the circle, which depends on the method of editing the circle. The paper considered 3 methods of editing: - running in circles 14A-12-ST1-K7; turning with a diamond pencil C3 and grinding circles 14A-12-ST1-K7. Studies have shown that the maximum performance is obtained when editing by running-in with a diamond pencil.
