The Superiority of Super High-Speed Grinding
Grinding is a common machining process which uses an abrasive to wear away surface material at high speed, resulting in the attainment of a desired shape and surface finish. Super high speed grinding is a machining technology which uses high speed abrasives and targeted pressures to produce better surface finish and accuracies than would be achieved with lower speed grinding technologies. This type of grinding technology provides numerous superiorities than other surfaces, including high levels of surface finish and accuracy of part form, more time efficient and more cost-effective over time.
The increased speeds and aggressiveness of super high-speed grinding provide overall superior results when compared to slower grinding techniques. The higher speed cuts deeper and removes a larger amount of material with each pass, resulting in smoother finished surfaces. Additionally, the decreased cutting forces achieved by super high-speed grinding can produce more intricate parts with a greater level of accuracy. Super high-speed grinding also eliminates significant tool wear, which further increases the accuracy of part form.
Since the process occurs in a shorter amount of time, the parts being produced are typically priced lower as the overall production process is shorter, which also results in less power being consumed and sharper tools with less wear over time. Super high-speed grinding is also more efficient as a larger amount of material is being removed per pass, making the process more cost effective overall.
A further advantage of super high-speed grinding is its ability to maximize utilization of existing tooling, meaning that expensive fixture design and tooling replacement costs can be avoided. By reducing the number of tool and fixture changes required, significant savings can be achieved through better machine throughput, extended die and tooling life, and the possibility of higher ratios between stock removal and finished part tolerances.
The increased accuracy, repeatability, and extended wear life of tools which results from super high-speed grinding allows tool life to be increased with less frequent replacement costs. This, in turn, produces excellent surface finishes and tight tolerances, which lead to better quality parts with higher levels of accuracy at a lower total cost.
Overall, super high-speed grinding has a number of advantages over other surfaces grinding technologies. Its ability to accurately grind parts to an improved level of accuracy, faster machining process, and effective power consumption, allows for a more efficient and cost-effective manufacturing process. As a result, the advantages of super high-speed grinding include increased surface finish and accuracy of part form, more time and cost-effective over time, and maximization of existing tooling.
