Effective machining of advanced structural ceramics

The objective of this diploma thesis are new design materials in a view of their structure, properties, manufacture,partitions, applications and possibili-ties of effective machining them Ceramics are used in the field of design applications more often than before. They are in form of compact parts and in form of thin coatings on the surface of metal parts. Fast development of constructive applications requires the same progress rate of machining ma-chines innovations and development of new methods of effective machining these materials, too. The aim is to produce parts of demanded shapes, dimensions and surface quality at affordable costs. Ceramics guarantee long terming durability and reliability. The evaluation of ceramics grinding tests from the point of view of cutting forces and surface quality of the machined faces are presented in the last part of the diploma thesis
