Abstract
A grinding system is controlled by (1) determining the exact nature of a power function relationship between (a) the rate at which material is removed from one of the surfaces at a rubbing interface and (b) the feed rate at which the rubbing surfaces are fed into each other, for a particular grinding operation, i.e., a particular grinding wheel and other specified conditions affecting the rate of material removal at the rubbing interface; and (2) controlling, measuring or setting the material removal rate or the feed rate in such a grinding operation in accordance with said power function relationship.
