Project Type MQP Submission date 2007-04-24 Authors Benjamin Lawrence Hall, ME Jonathan Kling, ME Edward P Pawlowski, ME Justin T Prange, ME URN E-project-042407-204228 Sponsor Saint-Gobain Title Determining Material Properties Responsible for Grinding Performance Advisor Rong, Yiming, ME Availability unrestricted Abstract
This project, prepared for the Saint-Gobain Abrasives group, will determine the effects of work material properties on grinding performance. Working with previous data, the team designed the parameters for a surface grinding test that employed two different grinding wheels as well as three different steel types (304 Stainless, 4340, D-3 Tool Steel). The data from this surface grinding test showed that hardness, elasticity and ultimate tensile strength have unexpected effects on grinding performance.
