Q

What is an IMPORTANT NOTE when doing GRINDING?

A

YOU MIUST DO THEM ON DEDICATED MACHINES, NEVER ON A LATHE OR MILL, the serious issue being if the grit gets into the ways of the machine

Q

What type of grinding wheel can be used that is suituble for dedicated machine tools?

A

VITRIFIED wheels, since these wheels are dimensially stabe and are resistant to oils, acids and water but respond poorly to mechanical or thermal shock

Q

What type of GRINDING WHEEL is good for POWER TOOLS?

A

RESINOID “Thermosetting Resin”, since the wheels are more flexible than vitrified and are more resistant to shock. They also are reinforced with a mesh of glass fiber to hold larger chucks should breakage occur

Q

What type of GRINDING WHEEL is used for THIN CUT-OFF wheels?

A

RUBBER, and these wheels only act as a saw and are not capable of precision work, or prolonged usage but good for countouring situations such as smoothing body filler

23
Q

Since GRRINDING produces RESIDUAL STRESSES that are tensile residual stresses what are the ways to minimize them?

A

You can grind the piece gently or do POST HET TREATMENT by heating the workpiece progressivly over time

24
Q

What are the 4 basic categories oof ABRASIVE CUTTING?

A

GRINDING, FINISHING, POLISHING, and BUFFING

25
Q

What is the most common grinding machine tool and why is it the most dangerous machine with its “siren song”?

A

BENCH GRINDER, and the danger is if the gap grows to 1/2”

26
Q

What is the safer GRINDING MACHINE that has a CNC and MANUAL variant?

A

SURFACE GRINDER, this version is much safer for basic reason being the operaters hand is never near the wheel and the wheel(which is heavily guarded) is installed parallel to the mahcine front and not perpendiculary

27
Q

What is one of the most common areas for precision grinding?

A

To create shafts that have ot hold barrings meaning tight tolerances

28
Q

Descride the first process of two CYLINDRICAL GRINDING

A

Workpiece is placed between an alive and dead centers, then rotated by a “Driving Plate and Dog” that is driven independently of the workpiece but in the same direction while coolant is used to keep the workpiece within acceptable temperature limits

29
Q

What is the machine that does CYLINDRICAL GRINDING?

A

CYLINDRICAL GRINDING MACHINE, which also is able to reciprocate the spindle back and forth and has no exposed ways and all bearings are sealed, with debris and shed drit being filtered from the recirculating coolant stream

30
Q

What is the second stage process?

A

CENETERLESS GRINDING, can be perfomed as a stand alone process

31
Q

Describe CENTERLESS GRINDING

A

It is a process that doesn’t require a clamp or other holding devices but instead the workpiece rest on a blade and is driven around and fed without slippage

32
Q

Since a GRINDING WHEEL doesn’t alwyays rin true or evenly it must go through a rejuvenation proceess called what?

A

TRUING

33
Q

What is the tool used in TRUING?

A

DRESSING TOOL and it has a diamond at its tip

34
Q

Describe the TRUING process

A

You take the DRESSING TOOL and draw it across the edge of the grinding wheel where it straight cuts the surface conentric wit the shaft

35
Q

What is a broad category of abrasive cutting that is performed after cutting?

A

FINISHING

36
Q

What are the different ways FINISHING can be applied?

A

On flat surfaces (LAPPING), internal bores (HONING), and outside circular shafts (SUPERFINISHING)

37
Q

What are the two different types of slabs used in LAPPING?

A

LAPPING STONE made of bonded abrasive grit & LAPPING PLATE made of grooved metal, and are used in conjunction eith cutting slurry or paste

38
Q

What is the simplecest form of LAPPING?

A

Done by hand to sharpen a blade

39
Q

What is automated LAPPING done on?

A

LAPPING MACHINE

40
Q

How does a LAPPING MAHCINE perform lapping?

A

The vehicle is a fluid whih is either pre charged with grit particles (cutting paste) or simply carriers the particles that are naturally shred and the a machine does large circular motions wiht superimposed smaller swirls.

41
Q

After LAPPING is done what is the result of the surface of the workpiece?

A

Only a very small amount is removed (typically 0.0005”) but the resulting surface is very flat and smooth

42
Q

What process is done after grinding for mainly cylindrical bores (insinde holes) for engines and hydrolic actuators?

A

HONING

43
Q

What is the tool used in HONING?

A

A HONING TOOL

44
Q

What is unique about the HONING TOOL?

A

It is cylindical in shape and carries a ring of rectangular STONES around the periphery that are attched in a complaint (non-rigid) manner, such as springs or clips, leaving them free to jpstle and adjust position as they interact with the workpiece

45
Q

How is HONING done?

A

It uses the HONING TOOL and the motion invloleves oscillaiton, reciproction, and rotation and uses flouids for cooling (no “vehicle”)

46
Q

What is used to measure shaft diameter on-the-fly during SUPERFINISHING?

A

Air guages, measures the back pressure of an air stream

47
Q

What is performed using disc (or semtimes belts/straps) of material infused with very fine abrasive grit?

A

POLISHING, produces Brushedd or Lined look

48
Q

What is the purpse of POLISHING?

A

Attemting to level surfaces and remove pits, scale and other imperfections

49
Q

What process is used to achieve Bright Luster?

A

BUFFING

50
Q

What are the tools used in BUFFING?

A

BUFFING WHEEL (a cloth disc) & BUFFING COMPOUND (wax like material added to the BUFFING WHEEL)

51
Q

What are the different types of BUFFING COMPOUNDS?

A

EMERY, STAINLESS, TRIPOFF, WHITE ROUGE, JEWELERS ROUGE, and PLASTIC

52
Q

What is an abrasive grit tha can lso be applied to flexible surface to produce this

A

COATED ABRASIVES

53
Q

What are the two most common COATED ABRASIVES?

A

SAND PAPER (mostly carpentry) & EMERY CLOTH

54
Q

How are COATED ABRASIVES made?

A

Constructed by sprinkling grit over a cloth or paper substrate, and then using a
multi-layered approach to hold the grit in place and protect it from water and oil intrusion.

55
Q

What is another use for ABRASIVES?

A

in DEBURRING applications

56
Q

What are the different types of machines that can do DEBURRING?

A

BARREL FINISHING MACHINE (containing abrasive media) , VIBRATORY TUMBLER(uses vibrations), and TUMBLERS (peanut or walnut husk used)
