Dynamic Analysis and Design of Steel-Ball Grinding Machines Based on No-Slip Cases

Based on no-slip cases between steel balls and lapping discs while a horizontal grinding machine is working, the motion equations of the ball lapping are established and the law of motion is revealed by the matlab software. this paper shows that the difference of the trace spacing is reduced by increasing the disc diameter, which can make the trace distribution of the steel ball surface more uniform. in order that balls do not slip when rotary disc drives them to rotate, the ranges of the lapping pressure and lapping disc speed is deduced by using the dynamics analysis considering from the vertical trench surface and along the groove surface, respectively. finally, this paper takes the selected material as an example to analyze the process parameters that affect the lapping curves, and explains the selection principles of alpha and beta when the trench has some bias, which can provide a reference to improve the quality of the steel balls surface.
