Dynamic analysis and grinding tracks in the magnetic fluid grinding system

To model the effects of the geometrical imperfections on the ball motion and its grinding track, it is therefore necessary to combine a dynamic model of the support system of balls with the previous model. For the geometrical imperfections on the ball, because of the interaction between the contact loads and the ball-spin speed, it causes the friction contact condition to remain at the interfaces with lower contact loads and lower ball-spin speeds in the separation case at the initial stage. Consequently, the variation in the ball-spin angle and the area covered by the grinding tracks is small. However, when the intermittent separation occurs at the geometrical imperfections on the ball orbit, it causes a large oscillation in the ball-spin angle and the ball-spin speed. Consequently, the effect of the imperfections in the ball orbit on the area covered by the grinding tracks is larger than that of the ball geometry. Ball-ball contacts cause a large oscillation in the ball-spin angle resulting in a uniform distribution of the grinding tracks. Hence, the effect of ball-ball contacts is one of the most important mechanisms in achieving a uniform distribution of the grinding tracks.
