2. Grinding wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_wheel

   Grinding wheels are self-sharpening to a small degree; for optimal use they may be dressed and trued by the use of wheel or grinding dressers. Dressing the wheel refers to removing the current layer of abrasive, so that a fresh and sharp surface is exposed to the work surface. Trueing the wheel makes the grinding surface parallel to the ...

3. Grinding (abrasive cutting) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_(abrasive_cutting)

   Surface grinding uses a rotating abrasive wheel to remove material, creating a flat surface. The tolerances that are normally achieved with surface grinding are ±2 × 10 −4 inches (5.1 μm) for grinding a flat material and ±3 × 10 −4 inches (7.6 μm) for a parallel surface. [4]

4. Grinding machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_machine

   Pedal-powered grinding machine, Russia, 1902. A grinding machine, often shortened to grinder, is any of various power tools or machine tools used for grinding. It is a type of material removal using an abrasive wheel as the cutting tool. [1] Each grain of abrasive on the wheel's surface cuts a small chip from the workpiece via shear deformation.

5. Bench grinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bench_grinder

   Wheels come with maximum RPM ratings printed on the label (paper blotter). The grinder's RPM must be equal or lower; "the maximum operating speeds indicated on the wheel's tag must never be exceeded". [2] Greatly overspeeding a grinding wheel makes it explode, which can injure or kill the operator.

6. Norton Abrasives - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norton_Abrasives

   Norton Company was founded in 1885 by a group of ceramists and entrepreneurs from Worcester, Massachusetts. The group set out to manufacture the first mass-produced, precision-made grinding wheel to fulfill the burgeoning U.S. manufacturing industry's growing need for abrasives. [1] In 1990 it was purchased by Saint-Gobain of France.

7. Centerless grinding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerless_grinding

   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 ...
