[0022] The groove method is selected according to the required rough polishing accuracy; preferably, a square groove of 10×10 cm is used for initial grinding to form a smooth and uniform grinding surface. The groove depth and shape here can be based on the hardness characteristics of the diamond, and a multi-level groove method is used to perform rough polishing layer by layer to achieve the effect of removing irregularities on the surface.
[0023] Step S3: During the rough polishing process, initial pressure is applied to the diamond substrate for rough polishing, and the surface response of the diamond substrate is monitored in real time. The pressure is kept within an optimal range using adaptive adjustment technology; wherein the optimal range is 50g / cm²~300g / cm²; in order to improve processing efficiency and avoid damage to the substrate surface caused by excessive pressure.

[0026] Step S6: After the rough polishing process is completed, the uniformity of the diamond substrate is evaluated using an optical flatness detection device. If necessary, various parameters are fine-tuned until the ideal rough polishing flatness and surface finish are achieved.
[0027] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: 9 4-inch or 6-inch diamond substrates are placed on the planetary wheel of the grinding equipment in sequence, so that they are fixed on the polishing disc at equal intervals, and pre-inspection is performed, and the pre-selected grinding pad is installed. According to the required rough polishing accuracy, a multi-level grooving method is selected, and the diamond substrate is rough polished layer by layer starting from the initial grinding, and the diamond substrate is rough polished by applying an initial pressure, and the pressure range is between 50g / cm² and 300g / cm². During the whole process, an appropriate initial pressure is applied, and the pressure is monitored and regulated in real time through the adaptive adjustment technology to ensure that the pressure is always in the optimal range; at the same time, a high-flow coolant circulation system is used to fully cool the grinding surface to keep the temperature stable; the independent control of the rotation speed ensures that the rotation speed of the upper disc and the lower disc is accurately matched, so as to achieve uniformity in the grinding process; finally, the substrate is quality evaluated by an optical flatness detection device; the process realizes efficient, uniform and high-quality rough polishing of the diamond substrate through precise control and real-time adjustment of the grinding parameters, significantly improves the surface flatness and consistency of the product, and improves the processing efficiency and product quality.

[0030] Step S13: Calculate the equally spaced positions of the substrate on the polishing disc according to the size of the polishing disc and the structure of the planetary wheel, mark the placement position of the substrate on the polishing disc, and fix the diamond substrate at the marked position of the planetary wheel using a vacuum suction cup.
[0031] Step S14: Pre-inspect the entire grinding equipment, including: Check the stability of the diamond substrate fixation; Verify the rotation stability of the planetary wheel and the operating status of the polishing disc; Confirm the normal operation of the sensor components; Carry out a short test run to confirm that there is no abnormal vibration or noise; And according to the trial operation results, fine-tune the parameters of the grinding equipment.

[0034] Step S24: After each layer of the multi-level grooving process is rough-polished, the surface quality of the diamond substrate is tested using a surface measuring instrument. The surface quality test includes testing parameters such as flatness and roughness.
[0035] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that step S3 specifically includes: Step S31: Before rough polishing, preset the optimal range of the grinding equipment pressure according to the size and material characteristics of the diamond substrate; Step S32: During the grinding process, the pressure sensor installed on the equipment will monitor the stress conditions of each point on the surface of the diamond substrate in real time; The surface pressure of the substrate is collected at multiple points by sensors, and the data is transmitted to the control system in real time through the processor to monitor whether any pressure exceeds the preset range or is unevenly distributed.
[0036] Step S33: When the pressure monitoring system detects that the pressure at the corresponding point deviates from the set optimal range, the adaptive adjustment system automatically intervenes to adjust the pressure of the corresponding support leg; The adaptive system corrects uneven pressure in a timely manner by finely adjusting the pressure applied by each leg to ensure that the pressure on the surface of each diamond substrate is always maintained in the optimal range of 50g / cm² to 300g / cm².
[0037] In this embodiment, it is further explained that after step S33, the following steps are further included: Step S34: The adaptive adjustment system provides closed-loop control technology, which compares the pressure adjustment data with the real-time surface pressure monitoring results, and continuously optimizes the pressure distribution. The adaptive adjustment system dynamically updates the pressure control strategy according to the surface state changes of the substrate during the grinding process, and avoids surface damage or microcracks caused by long-term uneven pressure.

[0040] Step S43: before starting the grinding equipment, start the coolant circulation system first, so that the coolant starts to circulate at a set flow rate; Step S44: During the rough polishing process, the flow control system continuously monitors the coolant flow and temperature in the grinding area; when it is detected that the flow deviates from the set value or the temperature exceeds the preset range, the flow control system automatically adjusts the flow control valve to adjust the coolant flow in real time; Step S45: regularly collect temperature data of the grinding area and the substrate surface temperature, evaluate the cooling effect of the coolant, and optimize the flow rate of the coolant according to the evaluation results.
[0041] In this embodiment, it is specifically explained that step S1 specifically includes: Step S51: Set up independent drive systems, respectively used for speed control of the upper plate, lower plate, ring gear and center gear, and connect each drive system to the control system; ensure that the speed of each component can be accurately and independently adjusted; set the initial parameter interface in the control software to allow input and saving of the target speed value of each component.

[0043] Step S55: During the grinding process, the rotation speed of each component is adjusted according to the grinding state and grinding effect of the diamond substrate.
[0044] If the grinding is found to be uneven or the efficiency is not ideal, the rotation speed of the upper or lower disk can be appropriately increased or decreased; by using the dynamic adjustment function of the control system and inputting new rotation speed parameters, the system will smoothly transition to the new rotation speed to avoid impact on the equipment and substrate; the adjusted rotation speed parameters and the corresponding grinding effect can be recorded to provide data support for subsequent process optimization.
