Abrasive Technology of Single-Crystal Diamond by Diamond Abrasive Wheel

Abstract

Single-crystal diamond tools can be used for cutting high precise parts with high efficiency, but it is very difficult to abrade it, which is one of study purposes in this paper. This project can be done on the high precise machine tools by using a diamond abrasive wheel with super fine grain size. In this paper, the abrading mechanism is represented, an efficient abrasive method is invented, the major factors which have an important effect on abrasive efficiency and accuracy are discussed, such as abrasive wheel grain size, bonding agent, hardness, speed, pressure and feeding speed etc and some results raising abrasive efficiency and accuracy are obtained. By using the single-crystal diamond tool abraded by author, the degree of roughness of the parts can come up to Ra0.05.
