Grinding today accounts for some 20% of all machining processes in manufacturing. For very hard materials, it is virtually the only choice available for efficient and precise shaping, making its use critical in certain manufacturing venues. And as net shape technology becomes even more prevalent, grinding becomes ever more important to the manufacturing and process engineer. This book is a comprehensive self contained work that brings to the reader what is known to date about grinding and how that knowledge can be translated into exceptional precision in part manufacture. Structured to educate as well as serve as a shop floor reference, the book bridges the gap between theory and application, presenting a critical and unified picture of the grinding process and how its use brings part quality in harmony with customer expectations.
