Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling the infeed of a grinding machine senses the interface force between a grinding wheel and a workpiece to control infeed for grinding a workpiece with diverse grindability characteristics. The infeed is increased in response to an increase in the sensed force until the interface force reaches a predetermined level; while the interface force is decreased to a predetermined level in response to a decrease in the sensed force.
