Preface
Machining with abrasives is a widely used process for producing intricate shapes on components and artifacts and for providing precise tolerances that are required especially for the manufacture of engineering components. Grinding technology is associated with the current developments in this area and this book contains chapters on abrasive materials, bonding systems, grinding wheel design, micro and nanogrinding, control of grinding processes, abrasive grinding, abrasive water jet grinding, and dressing of grinding wheels. The chapters are written by subject matter experts from around the world and provide an authoritative text on the current developments in machining with abrasive tools. Chapter 1 focuses on new developments in abrasive materials and associated bonding systems ranging from conventional abrasives to superabrasive materials. Chapter 2 provides an interesting prose on heat treatment and the performance of vitrified bonds, while Chap.3 takes a look at the design of grinding wheels and wheel safety. The dressing of grinding wheels is discussed in Chap.4 and leads into a chapter on the on the surface integrity in ground surfaces (Chap.5). The control aspect of grinding is explained lucidly in Chap.6, while Chap.7 focuses on the exciting new area of nanogrinding. The final chapters deal with polishing with loose abrasive particles and an authoritative overview of impact abrasive machining. The structure of the book is based on matter provided by many colleagues and the author wishes to thank the contributors of this book for helping construct a source of knowledge and information on m
