Experimental evaluation of super high-speed grinding of advanced ceramics

Development of advanced ceramics such as aluminium oxide, silicon carbide, and zirconium oxide has gained significant importance because of their desi rable properties. However,, their engineering applications al-e still limit ed owing to the limitations in developing crack-free and economical machini ng techniques. This paper presents a feasibility study Sol attaining high p roductivity with minimal surface damage by employing the high-speed grindin g processes for such materials. The effects of the grinding parameters on t he machined parts are analysed and reported.
