Grinding is a subset of cutting, as grinding is a true metal-cutting process. Each grain of abrasive functions as a microscopic single-point cutting edge (although of high negative rake angle), and shears a tiny chip that is analogous to what would conventionally be called a "cut" chip (turning, milling, drilling, tapping, etc.) [citation needed].
A schematic diagram of the centerless grinding process. Centerless grinding is a machining process that uses abrasive cutting to remove material from a workpiece. [1] Centerless grinding differs from centered grinding operations in that no spindle or fixture is used to locate and secure the workpiece; [2] the workpiece is secured between two rotary grinding wheels, and the speed of their ...
Electrochemical grinding is a process that removes electrically conductive material by grinding with a negatively charged abrasive grinding wheel, an electrolyte fluid, and a positively charged workpiece. [1] Materials removed from the workpiece stay in the electrolyte fluid. Electrochemical grinding is similar to electrochemical machining but ...
Die singulation, also called wafer dicing, is the process in semiconductor device fabrication by which dies are separated from a finished wafer of semiconductor. [1] Die singulation comes after the photolithography process. It can involve scribing and breaking, mechanical sawing (normally with a machine called a dicing saw) [2] or laser cutting.
Cylindrical grinder. The cylindrical grinder is a type of grinding machine used to shape the outside of an object. The cylindrical grinder can work on a variety of shapes, however the object must have a central axis of rotation. This includes but is not limited to such shapes as a cylinder, an ellipse, a cam, or a crankshaft.
Honing is an abrasive machining process that produces a precision surface on a metal workpiece by scrubbing an abrasive grinding stone or grinding wheel against it along a controlled path. Honing is primarily used to improve the geometric form of a surface, but can also improve the surface finish. Typical applications are the finishing of ...
Ellingham diagrams are a particular graphical form of the principle that the thermodynamic feasibility of a reaction depends on the sign of Δ G, the Gibbs free energy change, which is equal to Δ H − T Δ S, where Δ H is the enthalpy change and Δ S is the entropy change. The Ellingham diagram plots the Gibbs free energy change (Δ G) for ...
A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process. In the process industry, a standard set of symbols is used to prepare drawings of processes. The instrument symbols used in these drawings are generally based on ...
