Why does the grinding wheel wear out so fast
May 26, 2022
There is always a feedback from customer that the grinding wheel wear too fast, even they do nothing during grinding process,keeping the same machine, same work piece, same stuff, and same working condition.
Thus, what lead to such issue?
To solve it, we need to check grinding wheel condition, status of grinding machine, grinding condition, stability of work piece, etc.
Causes of grinding wheel:
1. Formula of grinding wheel is not suitable
2. Pressure is not enough during grinding wheel production
3. Temperature is wrong
4. Press time is not enough
Causes of grinding machine:
1. Run out of main shaft bearing
2. Loosing of transmission mechanism
Causes of grinding condition:
1. Grit size not right, too fine.
2. Feeding speed too fast
3. Feeding rate too big
Usually, as feedback "nothing" is changed, same grinding wheel, same work piece, same grinding machine, same stuff and same grinding condition. We think they change a small thing "feeding speed". Because they want to improve the grinding efficiency, increase the feeding speed is an easy way.
However, if increase the feeding speed too much, it makes grinding wheel wears out quickly. The grinding efficiency is improved, but grinding wheel wears too fast. We recommend customer choose a reasonable feeding speed. That's not a big problem, but it makes your production cost increased.
