GRINDING :
INTRODUCTION
EXPERIMENTAL SET-UP
CRYOGENIC SYSTEM
The cryogenic grinding lowers the thermal related problems Reduced grinding forces High M.R.R. can be achieved Minimizing residual stress and micro-cracks Retention of wheel grit sharpness (i.e. low rate of grit wear) Surface finish, dimensional accuracy and tool life improved Difficult-to-machine materials can also be machined Moreover, use of liquid nitrogen as a grinding fluid facilitates clean and pollution free working environment
The application of cryogen in moist atmosphere may cause formation of ice around the delivery nozzle and the piping system carrying the cryogen . This may cause a possible blockage in the delivery system of liquid nitrogen . Economic considerations should be solved .
CONCLUSION :
Cryo-grinding improves product quality by controlling thermal effects.
