Abstract
The present paper proposes a new methodology of fabricating metal-bonded gr inding/polishing tools by the greentape laser sintering method. The porosit y of copper sintered parts is utilised for manufacturing grinding/polishing tools containing cubic boron nitride (CBN) or alumina abrasives. The feasi bility investigation shows that a mirror surface is achieved in polishing a ustenitic steel with a copper-bonded CBN tool.
