The use of carbon fibre-reinforced polymers in high-performance electric motors enables higher levels of efficiency and system rigidity. The demands on the surface quality of the individual components are so high that they can only be achieved by grinding processes. This paper investigates the influence of fibre orientation and abrasive grain size on the surface roughness during side-face grinding of CFRP.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
