An apparatus for setting control parameters of a machining apparatus. The setting apparatus includes a storage unit for storing a set of control parameters for each of a plurality of machining modes; an input device for selecting one of the plurality of machining modes; and a control unit for selecting a set of control parameters corresponding the selected machining mode and setting the set of control parameters as control parameters to be used for controlling the machining apparatus.

Apparatus and method for setting control parameters of machining apparatus

A CBN grinding wheel having a circular core and an abrasive layer formed on the peripheral surface of the core. The abrasive layer comprises high toughness CBN grains and medium toughness CBN grains, wherein the high toughness CBN grains are incorporated into the abrasive layer in a ratio of 10-80% by weight with respect to the total amount of the CBN grains.

CBN grinding wheel

A dressing apparatus for dressing an electroplated grinding wheel by crushing the top portions of the abrasive grains thereof. The abrasive grains are diamond grains or CBN grains. A role made of ceramics, or a ferrous role holding diamond grains on its outer periphery is used for crushing the abrasive grains. The grinding wheel is rotated in one direction and the role is rotated in the opposite direction so that the difference in surface speed between the role and the grinding wheel becomes substantially zero. The role is then advanced toward the grinding wheel to crush the top portions of the abrasive grains, so that the heights of the abrasive grains are roughly equalized, and many sharp cutting edges are formed at the top portions of the abrasive grains.

Method and apparatus for dressing an electroplated grinding wheel

A grinding wheel for use in a grinding machine, wherein a plurality of grinding tips are bonded on the periphery of a wheel core having a disk-like shape using a bond which forms a bonding layer between the wheel core and the grinding tips. The grinding wheel is further provided with means for preventing coolant from entering inside of the abrasive layer and/or bonding layer, thereby preventing the bonding layer from being swelling by the coolant. In a first embodiment, the preventing means is composed of rubber layers formed on the both side surfaces of the grinding wheel at the places corresponding to the radial position of the bonding layer. In another embodiment, the preventing means is composed of water-repellant material capable of repelling water. Such material is composed of silicon or fluorine resin and is soaked into the grinding tips.
