One must observe abrasive grain of grinding wheel and know their behaviors to understand the grinding mechanism. The behaviors of abrasive grain on the wheel surface. such as shapes distributions and changes were studied to make the grinding mechanism clear but the behaviors of abrasive grains on CBN wheel are not known enough. From this paper the working surface of a grinding wheel is observed by photography in which a picture of a wheel surface is taken by the camera through the microscope on the grinding machine and analyzed with the computer.

In this study an experimental investigation was conducted to find the grinding characteristics of ceramics, STD11 and STS304 materials. The grinding force and the microscopic observation of the workpieces were obtained in surface grinding. Grinding characteristics of ceramics were inspected through the microscopic examination the cutting force, and the surface roughness. It has been found that the finding force of ceramics is relatively low as compared to that of steels and that CBN wheel has an excellent performance. The surface roughness was measured according to the feedrate and the depth of out.

Hard turning offers many possible benefits over grinding such as lower equipment costs, shorter setup time, reduced process steps and better surface integrity. Despite the amount of research in this area, there exists no data in the intermittent hard turning. The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of CBN tool materials and machinability to an intermittent hard turning. To this end, different CBN materials were tested to evaluate the tool wear and surface roughness in an intermittent hard turning. It is found that low-CBN-content tool is better than high-CBN-content tool. Then, we discussed a cutting force, vibration, and CBN tool wear mechanism from the hard turning.

This paper presents the performance of CBN tools in the machining of hardened die-materials, SKD11 and SKD61 steel with HRC 50, by high-speed face milling. Generally, grinding or EDM is being used in machining of hardened materials but the cost is very high. If those can be replaced by cutting, it will be a greatly economical advantage. CBN tool has been recognized as an effective tool in turning, but it has not been in milling. So wear and surface roughness mode of CBN tool for hardened SKD11 and SKD61 steel were investigated by high-speed face milling in this study Also the relation between cutting force and wear mode of CBN tools was investigated.

Hard turning is a machining process for hardened materials with high surface quality so that grinding process can be eliminated. Therefore, the hard turning is capable of reducing machining time and improving productivity. In this study, hardened AISI4140 (high-carbon chromium steel) that has excellent yield strength, toughness and wear resistance was finish turned using CBN tools. Wear characteristics of CBN tool was analyzed in dry and MQL mixed with nano-particle (Nano-MQL). The dominant fracture mechanism of CBN tool is diffusion and dissolution wear on the rake surface resulting in thinner cutting edge. Abrasive wear by hard inclusion in AISI4140 was dominant on the flank surface. Nano-MQL reduced tool wear comparing with the dry machining but chip evacuation should be considered. A cryogenically treated tool showed promising result in tool wear.

A problem in the grinding with a small diametric wheel is the decrease of wheel speed. In order to resolve this problem, an accelerating unit which increases the wheel speed is recommended. In this paper, the accelerating effect of an accelerating unit has been investigated through the side-cut grinding experiments performed with a vitrified bonded CBN wheel in a machining center(MC). The static stiffness, normal force, and machining error were measured in the experiments. As the accelerating unit is attached on the column of machining center, the static stiffness of tool system is largely decreased. But as the wheel speed increased by the accelerating unit, this problem is overcome and machining efficiency is improved. The lesser the quill stiffness was, the higher the accelerating effect became.

Hard turning on modern lathes becomes a realistic replacement for many grinding applications. Because CBN tools are expensive, excessive tool wear can eliminate economic advantages of hard turning. This paper describes a study of investigating the cutting force and the characteristics of tool wear in hard turning of hardened steels, AISI 52100. Cutting forces generated using CBN tools have been evaluated. The radial thrust cutting force was the largest among three cutting force components. It increased dramatically as a result of progressive tool wear. On the other hand, the result shows significantly different wear characteristics between high CBN and low CBN. Backpropagation neural network was used for the estimation of tool wear. The networks were achieved the reliability of 96.3% even when the spindle speed and feed rate are changed.

The hard turning is a turning operation performed in high strength alloy steels (HRC>30) in order to reach surface roughness close to those obtained in grinding. This is possible because of availability of improved tool materials (polycrystalline cubic boron nitride. PCBN), ad more rigid machine tools. According to many previous work of hard turning mechanism, the maximum temperature of cutting can be raised up to 100$0^{\circ}C$. As the heat generation rate is very high, the thermal displacement of tool holder cannot be negligible. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to analyze effects of high heat generation at CBN tool tip to the thermal displacement of a tool holder in hard turning and finally geometric accuracy. The thermal behavior of a CBN tool holder is investigated by numerical simulation and experiment, and the result shows thermal elongation of microns order is possible during hard turning process.
