Grinding offers capabilities that range from high-rate material removal to high-precision superfinishing and has become one of the most widely used industrial machining and surface finishing operations. Reflecting modern developments in the science and practice of grinding, this handbook presents a broad range of abrasive machining technologies with a focus on the fundamental concepts and practical applications. This edition includes new materials, new types of abrasives, new machine-tools, new software, and new and basic research carried out by the authors.
