Abstract

By reducing the set-up time of centreless grinding system, higher process flexibility and productivity can be obtained. This goal is approached by developing a simulation model that assists in efficient centreless grinding system set-up. In this paper, an analytical modelling of plunge centreless grinding is described. The developed model incorporates the workpiece forming mechanism along with workpiece dynamics and facilitates the simulation of workpiece form and its centre displacement. The prototype simulation model has been embedded within a spreadsheet environment and experimentally verified.
