This study has focused on development of ELID monitoring system and its application to ELID grinding of structural ceramics. ELID monitoring system was consisted of grinding equipment, ELID power supply, grinding wheel, electrode and monitoring program. It can give a real time data to check spindle grinding resistance, wheel revolution, dressing current and voltage in ELID grinding process. The performance of developed system was evaluated by applying to grinding of structural ceramics, silicon carbide and alumina. As the results of experiments, monitored data for spindle resistance and ELID dressing current was useful to check steady-state ELID grinding process. From the comparison of spindle resistance between ELID grinding and conventional grinding process according to change of depth of cut, it could be confirmed that the spindle resistance in ELID grinding was lower than conventional grinding process.

Recently, a study on the mirror-like surface grinding of brittle materials is active and as branch of these study, new dressing method for superabrasive wheel, electrolytic inprocess dressing(Elid) was developed. Using Elid, the mirror-like surface of brittle material can be generated without polishing or lapping process. In the future, Elid grinding will take important place in industry. But so far the analysis on Elid grinding was not quantitative but qualitative. In this study, The purpose is the quantitative analysis on Elid grinding by computer simulation, For computer simulation, the mean and the variance of the abrasive distribution were measured by tracing of the grinding wheel with stylus in transverse direction in the case of respective dressing current condition. This measurement result in a density distribution of abrasive by mathematical formulation using statistical method. The prediction of the surface roughness in Elid grinding was based on this density distribution.

A new dressing technique with utilizes electrolytic phenomenon for realizing effective mirror surface grindings with metal bonded super-abrasive wheels is called “Electrolytic In-process Dressing Grinding”. This technique enabled metal bonded micro-grain wheels, such as micro-grain cast iron fiber bonded wheels, to be used for mirror surface finish processes effectively. But this technique requires a lot of knowledge and experience to perform. And the condition of dressing is variable according to the time. Therefore adaptation of Monitoring and Control technique is needed.

In this study, in order to set ELID conditions in the internal grinding wheel, the characteristics with the variations of grit size, output voltage and peak current were examined by using conventional machining center(M/C) equipped with electrolytic in-process dressing(EL1D). The initial working voltage was lowered and the working current was high with increasing grit size. The insulating layer thickness increased, as the final voltage increased with the output voltage and peak current. The initial wear rate of the wheel machined with ELID were measured indirectly by using surface roughness tracer. The initial wear rate of the wheel with ELID increased along with high grit size. In case that the grit size with ELID was low, the output voltage and peak current had to be increased to increase the insulating layer thickness. In case of the high grit size, the output voltage and the peak current were established low, which made the insulating layer thickness decreased.

This study has focused on the effect of ultrasonic vibration table in ELID grinding process of aluminum nitride ceramics. Aluminum nitride ceramics has superior physical and chemical properties and widely used in IC, LSI substrate, package and so on. To achieve the high effective machining of brittle and high strength ceramics as like aluminum nitride, machining method combined ELID grinding and ultrasonic vibration has been adopted in this study. From the experimental results, material removal rate, MRR has been increased maximum 36 percent and spindle resistance has been decreased in using ultrasonic table. Surface roughness of ground surface became a little worse in using ultrasonic table but was somewhat improved in feed direction.

In general, it is known that the wear rate of the abrasive and the removal rate of the metal bond of the grinding wheel should be balanced to maintain the depth of the insulating surface layer to an appropriate level. In order to accomplish, the high quality ELID grinding, therefore, it is necessary to measure the depth of the insulating layer in real-time and then to control the electrolytic conditions to keep the depth to a certain level. In this study, an in-process measurement system of the insulated layer using two gap sensors - a capacitor type and an eddy current type - developed and the change of the status of the insulated layer during ELID grinding is detected. And from the experimental data, we have chosen the best mathematical model to predict the depth of the insulating layer.
