Summary
The dressing process is one of the most influential parts of the grinding process. The most important parameters in single point diamond dressing are the dressing lead, the dressing depth and the diamond width. It is found that the change of the diamond shape leads to large changes in grinding behaviour. To account for the inability in dressing to control diamond shape, an adaptive strategy is proposed for adjustment of dressing conditions based on the grinding performance. Experimental results show that changes of the grinding performance due to diamond wear can be compensated by appropriate adjustments of the dressing depth and the dressing lead.
