Abstract:For the purpose of investigating the effect of cutting edge truncation on ground surface morphology, several kinds of hard and brittle materials used for optical devices, borosilicate glass, glass quartz, crystal quartz and sapphire, are plunge ground with a SD600 metal-bonded grinding wheel, the cutting edges of which are truncated so as to be aligned with the height level of the grinding wheel working surface, after electrocontact discharge truing and dressing. It is found that an
improvement of roughness ca… Show more
