Abstract:

AbstractThis paper reviews the history of centerless grinding and its contribution to industry. It summarizes the evolution of centerless grinding theory including advanced modeling and simulation. Then, it discusses the design of main elements of a centerless grinding machine such as spindles, bed, guideways and positioning system, and provides design guidelines for future machines. The paper presents the state-of-the-art centerless grinding technologies: advanced machines, advanced process monitoring and the latest developments in grinding wheels. Finally, in conclusion, future trends and research work in centerless grinding technology are discussed.
