Abstract:
Dressing is a critical issue for optimizing the grinding process. Dresser tool and dresser parameters must be designed according to the grinding wheel material, shape, or even the dimensional and geometrical tolerances of the workpiece and its surface roughness. Likewise, one of the problematic issues of dressers is the wear that they suffer. In order to tackle this issue, the present work characterized the wear of two rotary dressers by analysing the wear behaviour depending on the pit radius of the dressers while studying the influence of the wear on ground surfaces. This work showed that the rotary dresser with a higher pit radius presents wear that is approximately 28% higher than the dresser with a half pit radius.
