The mechanism and application of bronze-bond diamond grinding wheel pulsed laser dressing based on phase explosion

This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the surface bond removal mechanism for bronze-bond diamond grinding wheels using a pulsed laser. For the first time, the existence of a phase explosion phenomenon during the process of grinding wheel laser dressing is proposed, and the negative effects of a phase explosion on laser dressing are analyzed. Additionally, a theoretical study on phase explosion is conducted. The mechanism of bronze-bond diamond grinding wheel laser dressing is improved, and theoretical guidance for bronze-bond diamond grinding wheel laser dressing is provided. In the experiment, the processing parameters of the laser during phase explosion are studied, and a grinding test under the corresponding conditions is conducted. A high-speed camera is used to observe phase explosion in the laser dressing process. An ultra-depth 3-D microscope system is used to observe the topography of the bronze-bond diamond grinding wheel after dressing and grinding as well as the bronze wheel surface quality. It is concluded that to avoid phase explosion from occurring in the laser dressing of the bronze-bond grinding wheel, chip space around the bond must exist for the abrasive particle protrusions. The processing parameters of laser dressing under certain condition are optimized, and the desired dressing effect is achieved.
