Understanding Vibrations During Grinding: A Study on the Relative Movement of Tools and Parts
Grinding is a complex process that involves a series of interactions between the tool and the part being treated. In this process, vibrations can occur, which can have a significant impact on the final product. In this study, we will explore the phenomenon of vibrations during grinding, including the different types of vibrations, their causes, and their effects on the machining surface.
Types of Vibrations
Vibrations during grinding can be classified into three main categories: forced vibration, self-excited vibration, and mixed vibration. Forced vibration is characterized by the presence of an excitation source in the machine-tool process system, whose frequency is independent of the quantity of grinding. On the other hand, self-excited vibration is linked to the quantity of grinding, and its amplitude increases with the increase in grinding quantity. Mixed vibration, on the other hand, is a combination of both forced and self-excited vibrations.
Characteristics of Vibrations
The frequency of forced vibration is consistent with the frequency of the excitation source, while the frequency of self-excited vibration is linked to the quantity of grinding. In the case of mixed vibration, both frequencies are consistent, but the amplitude of vibration increases with the increase in grinding quantity.
Experimental Methods
To study the phenomenon of vibrations during grinding, three different experimental methods were employed. The first was an analysis of the surface undulation of the part, which was done by measuring the frequency of occurrence of the undulation for the surface of the part. The second was a grinding test, in which a sample was ground under different conditions, and the amplitude and frequency of vibration were measured. The third was an excitation test, in which an excitation system was used to measure the natural frequency of the system.
Experimental Results
The results of the experiments revealed that the frequency of vibration is linked to the quantity of grinding, and that the amplitude of vibration increases with the increase in grinding quantity. The study also showed that the natural frequency of the system is higher than the frequency of vibration, indicating that the possibility of self-excitation and mixed vibrations can be excluded.
Conclusion
In this study, we have demonstrated the importance of understanding vibrations during grinding, including the different types of vibrations, their causes, and their effects on the machining surface. The study has shown that the frequency of vibration is linked to the quantity of grinding, and that the amplitude of vibration increases with the increase in grinding quantity. Further research is needed to fully understand the phenomenon of vibrations during grinding and to develop effective methods for mitigating their effects.
Recommendations
Based on the results of the study, the following recommendations can be made:
- To reduce vibrations during grinding, it is recommended to use proper grinding techniques, such as using a high-quality grinding wheel and maintaining the machine in good condition.
- To reduce the amplitude of vibration, it is recommended to use a combination of grinding and cutting, as this can help to reduce the frequency of vibration.
- To reduce the effect of vibrations on the machining surface, it is recommended to use advanced surface finishing techniques, such as polishing or electrochemical machining.
Future Research Directions
Future research should focus on developing more effective methods for mitigating the effects of vibrations during grinding, as well as on understanding the underlying mechanisms of vibration during grinding. This can be achieved through the use of advanced experimental techniques, such as holographic interferometry, and the development of advanced mathematical models of the grinding process.
