Researchers of Laboratory for Cutting (LABOD) in cooperation with the synthetic grit producer Element Six and Chalmers University of Technology have formulated the assessment framework for analysis of the effects of grit properties and dressing on grinding mechanics and wheel performance. The results of the study are published in International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture (IF: 10.331).

The analysis uses the classical grinding-force model and proposes four new parameters that capture wheel topography effect. Here, the use of the theory of aggressiveness circumvents the influences of grinding geometry and kinematics. The analytical framework is validated through experiments with different wheel topographies obtained by changing dressing conditions and grit properties. This framework provides a rational basis for evaluating grinding-wheel performance and abrasive-grit selection.
