Abstract

Grinding force and temperature will affect the microscopic quality of workpiece surface and service life. Taking the cylindrical grinding of precision spindle bearings as the research object, the metamorphic layer of bearings of different brands was analyzed. Theoretical modeling and orthogonal test were carried out for the coupling of grinding force and grinding temperature of the outer ring surface of bearing. The surface roughness, residual stress, and retained austenite were analyzed. The grinding process of precision spindle bearing was optimized, and the fatigue life test of 6000 h was carried out and discussed. The results shown that (1) there were “dark layer” and “white layer” in the bearing surface, and the maximum thickness of “dark layer” was 12 μm, and the maximum thickness of “white layer” was 4.5 μm. (2) Feed speed had the greatest influence on grinding force. Grinding depth had the greatest influence on grinding temperature. Grinding wheel speed and grinding depth had the greatest influence on surface roughness. With the increase of grinding wheel speed, the tangential residual stress decreased, and the retained austenite increased instead. (3) The highest and lowest content of retained austenite was 9.9% (wheel speed: 40 m/s, workpiece speed: 5 r/min, grinding depth: 50 μm, feed speed: 0.6 mm/min) and 6.8% (wheel speed: 25 m/s, workpiece speed: 15 r/min, grinding depth: 40 μm, feed speed: 0.9 mm/min), respectively. (4) The fatigue failure of precision spindle bearings was caused by spalling, pitting, burning, and gluing. When the rotating speed was between 48,000 and 49,000 r/min, the temperature changes of the four bearings increased sharply. The temperature changes of the four bearings in each unit test were between 20 and 50℃.
