Grinding of ceramic‐metal‐compounds – finite element analysis simulation of the grinding process of hybrid stratified compounds In this paper, the subproject TP 8 “Grinding of ceramic‐metal‐compounds” is been introduced. An adapted grinding strategy should be created for the production of a ceramic‐cemented carbide compound drill. This aim should be obtained with experimental analysis and the use of finite element analysis to simulate the grinding process of ceramic‐cemented carbide compound drill. Furthermore a basic approach for simulating the grinding process of hybrid stratified compounds is been presented, which should be a basis for a finite element analysis simulation of a grinding process of ceramic‐cemented carbide compound drill.
