The Influence of the Formulation Components and the Mixing Technology on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Abrasive Wheel

The influence of the components of the abrasive tool formulation and the technology of mixing the components on physical and mechanical properties is discussed in the article. The technology for the manufacture of a ceramic-bond abrasive tool is presented. The main factors that determine the properties of an abrasive tool are described. The data used in the calculation of the formulation are analyzed, such as: type of abrasive material, grain size, hardness, type of bond, structure, filler. The importance of the process of mixing components of grinding tools at the stage of their manufacture is substantiated.The generalized statistical models of the dependence of physical and mechanical properties on the components of the formulation are presented. The model describing the abrasive mixing process is developed. Based on the results obtained, conclusions are formulated in the form of practical recommendations for improving the properties of the abrasive wheel based on the selection of the components of the formulation and the technology of their mixing
