High-efficiency internal cylindrical grinding with a new kinematic

Based on a new kinematic, a prototype internal grinding machine was developed in KSF. The main target to design such machine was to defeat some problems of internal grinding such as poor enrichment of coolant lubricant, deflection of grinding tool and the resulting inaccuracy, low material removal and high heat generation because of long contact length. This new concept could not only overcome the a/m problems, but should also create different topography on the workpiece surface which is appropriate for some functional applications.
