8.5 Wheel Speed and Workpiece Feed
The maximum value of the grinding-wheel speed v
g
depends on the
wheel bond, the production method of the grinding wheel, and the type of
application used. Table 8.4 shows the recommended data for reciprocating
peripheral surface grinding and Table 8.5 shows the recommended data for
cylindrical grinding.
Problems
8.1 In a horizontal axis surface grinding of 0.05 mm depth using a 250 mm
wheel diameter and a width 20 mm, calculate the maximum chip thickness
if the table speed is 10 m/min and the wheel speed is 1200 m/min. The
workpiece has a specic cutting energy of 2000 N/mm ...
