16
Q

what are the 5 ways toreduce grinding tempurature

A

decrease depth of cut
reduce wheel speed
dress the wheel
reduce number of active grits per in^2
use grinding fluid

17
Q

what is honing

A

abrasion process preformed by a set of bonded abrasive sticks

18
Q

what is Lapping

A

uses fluid suspension of very small abrasive particles between workpeice and tool

19
Q

what is superfinishing

A

similar to honing but stick is pressed against the surface in a reciprocating motion

20
Q

what is polishing used for

A

removing scuffs and burrs and to smooth rough surfaces

21
Q

what is buffng used for

A

provides smoother surface then polishing due to softer wheel
