Abstract:

The dynamic changes of the friction properties of the oxide film are characterized by the dynamic changes of the ELID grinding force. The tangential force and normal force are used to represent the friction coefficient in order to obtain the accurate real-time friction coefficient of oxide film. Therefore, the friction coefficient of various grinding wheels with different bonding agents, various grinding parameters, various grinding materials (nano- Al2O3 ceramic, nano ZrO2 ceramic and ordinary ZrO2 ceramic), and ELID grinding and ordinary grinding can be further studied. The results show that: the friction coefficient of the oxide film on the bronze-based grinding wheel is greater than that composed by iron; the friction coefficient of the oxide film decreases with the increase in grinding depth and feeding speed; the friction coefficient of the oxide film and nano-materials is smaller than that of the oxide film and ordinary materials; the transformation from γ-Fe2O3 to α-Fe2O3 in oxide film and the elastic deformation of the oxide film caused by the high-temperature of grinding may make the friction coefficient of ELID grinding greater than that of ordinary grinding, so the oxide film contains better property of friction and polishing. Therefore, excellent surface quality is easier to be obtained by it compared with the ordinary grinding technology.
