Grinding Strategy for Surface Grinding 603 Stainless Steel with CBN Grinding Wheels

time:2026-07-21 15:52:30hit:6

For 630 stainless steel that has undergone solution treatment and aging (with a hardness of approximately 35 HRC), 

the customer was using a surface grinder equipped with a monocrystalline corundum grinding wheel. During the grinding process, the workpiece exhibited a "sticky" behavior; 

each dressing cycle removed only about 0.005 mm of material, and there was a significant discrepancy between the infeed setting and the actual material removal, indicating rapid wear of the monocrystalline corundum wheel.


To address these machining challenges, we—as a professional manufacturer of diamond and CBN grinding wheels—developed a CBN grinding wheel. 

The operational procedure is as follows:


Once the grinding wheel is mounted on the machine, its outer diameter must be dressed to bring runout within standard limits due to bore-spindle fit and other assembly tolerances. 

For this dressing process, a corundum grinding wheel is secured to the magnetic chuck. The dressing involves an infeed of 0.01 mm at each end of the stroke while maintaining a normal left-right oscillation; 

the surface of the corundum wheel should be kept wet. Dressing is complete when the grinding sound becomes continuous and steady.
