Grain-aspect Ratio Formula Elements

Variables
Grain Aspect Ratio
Grain Aspect Ratio describes the shape of the abrasive grains embedded within the grinding wheel. It signifies efficiency of grinding wheel based on the grain's shape and fracturing behavior.
Symbol: rg
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Maximum Width of Chip
Maximum Width of Chip is defined as the theoretical widest part a chip could have after being removed from the workpiece by a single abrasive grain on the grinding wheel.
Symbol: wgMax
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Maximum Undeformed Chip Thickness
Maximum Undeformed Chip Thickness is the thickest layer of material a single abrasive grain on the grinding wheel aims to remove before it breaks the material and forms a chip.
Symbol: tgMax
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.

How to Evaluate Grain-aspect Ratio?

Grain-aspect Ratio evaluator uses Grain Aspect Ratio = Maximum Width of Chip/Maximum Undeformed Chip Thickness to evaluate the Grain Aspect Ratio, The Grain-aspect Ratio calculates the shape of the chip a grinding wheel makes. Higher ratio means wider chips and rougher finish, while lower ratio means smoother finish. By considering the desired surface finish, material removal rate, and grinding force requirements, engineers can choose a wheel with the right grain size and shape (which influences the aspect ratio) to achieve optimal grinding performance. Grain Aspect Ratio is denoted by rg symbol.
