Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field related to precise dressing of grinding wheels, and more particularly relates to a method and system for additive and subtractive dressing of spherical grinding wheels. BACKGROUND

[0002] Grinding is a method of processing workpiece surface by using abrasive, which has the advantages of high processing precision and good surface quality, and is widely used in the fields of mechanical manufacturing, aerospace, optical manufacturing, etc. With the development of technology, more and more spherical and free-form surface processing requirements have emerged, and the use of spherical grinding wheels and other curved surface grinding wheels has been increasing. However, the profile accuracy of spherical grinding wheels will be lost due to the dulling and falling off of abrasive particles during processing, which not only increases the grinding force and raises the grinding temperature, but also causes the profile error of the spherical grinding wheel to be mapped to the surface of the processed workpiece, thereby affecting the precision of the processed surface. Therefore, the grinding wheel needs to be dressed regularly to maintain the profile accuracy.

[0003] Existing grinding wheel dressing devices are mostly offline dressing devices, which need to be installed on special dressing equipment for dressing after being detached from the machine tool. The clamping error introduced in the repeated disassembly and assembly of the grinding wheel reduces the dressing accuracy of the grinding wheel. The dressing methods of grinding wheels include mechanical dressing, electrical discharge dressing, additive dressing, etc. The mechanical dressing method uses diamond pens or dressing wheels to dress the grinding wheel by grinding, which belongs to contact dressing and causes great loss of dressing tools. The interaction between the dressing tool and the abrasive particles in the dressing process can easily reduce the holding force of the binder on the abrasive particles. The electrical discharge dressing avoids the contact problem in mechanical dressing, but has low efficiency and can only be used for grinding wheels with electrical conductivity. Compared with additive dressing, subtractive dressing needs to remove a large amount of material, which reduces the number of repeatable dressing of the grinding wheel and affects the service life of the grinding wheel. The additive dressing method mainly fills the defect points on the surface of the grinding wheel, which can improve the dressing frequency of the grinding wheel and increase the utilization rate of the grinding wheel. However, the additive dressing precision is low and it is difficult to control the fine surface profile. In summary, the existing technical solutions for grinding wheel dressing still have many defects. SUMMARY
