This invention is a steel billet
grinding process with a constant
grinding wheel linear speed. First, the steel billet is automatically fed, positioned, and locked. A
laser rangefinder detects the
actual length of the steel billet and calibrates the
grinding wheel to align with the billet's length center. Then, the
grinding wheel is controlled to apply pressure and adhere to the steel billet, driving the billet to translate and complete the grinding of both sides. During the grinding stage at the billet's ends, the speed and pressure are automatically reduced to avoid over-grinding and
sharpening at the ends. A trolley tilting mechanism rotates the billet 45° multiple times, cyclically grinding all sides and edges of the billet, using a repeated grinding method with decreasing feed depth to ensure grinding accuracy. Simultaneously, photoelectric switches on both sides of the
grinding wheel monitor the wear on the outer circumference of the
grinding wheel in real time, dynamically adjusting the grinding wheel
motor speed to maintain a constant grinding linear speed, and simultaneously calibrating the distance between the grinding wheel and the billet to stabilize the grinding pressure. This invention effectively ensures uniform overall grinding quality of the steel billet and improves the grinding accuracy and stability of the billet's sides and edges.
