The invention discloses a surface
topography prediction method for forming and finishing of a face gear worm
grinding wheel. The surface
topography prediction method comprises the steps that firstly, the surface
topography of a worm
grinding wheel and the surface topography of
a diamond roller are reconstructed; based on the motion
equivalent transformation principle, a four-axis linkage trimming
kinematics model is established, and the
relative motion trail of the tool and the workpiece is accurately calculated; then, an
abrasive particle micromechanical model based on the
Hertz contact theory is constructed, the instantaneous contact stress in the finishing process is calculated, and a Weibull
distribution function is introduced to predict the crushing probability and the residual height of
abrasive particles; and finally, the three-dimensional
microstructure of the trimmed
grinding wheel is integrally predicted according to the whole
tooth surface trimming period by combining the motion trail and
abrasive particle state judgment. According to the method, the whole-process accurate prediction of the dressing morphology of the complex curved
surface grinding wheel from the geometric motion to the micromechanism is realized, theoretical guidance can be provided for the optimization of dressing process parameters, and the grinding quality of a face gear is effectively improved.
