Abstract: | Ferrite is widely used as a material for hard disk magnetic heads, but is difficult to grind because of its high hardness and brittleness. Therefore, a superabrasive (diamond) wheel is used for precision surface grinding of this material. But the conventional dressing method cannot be applied to the diamond wheel. This study describes a newly proposed method for carrying out effective in-process electro-discharge dressing (IEDD) of a diamond wheel. Using IEDD, the surface roughness of Mn–Zn ferrite was improved and the grinding force was reduced. IEDD is a good method to obtain efficient grinding and surface grinding of ferrite. |
