Abstract
A dynamometer is described for measuring independently the normal and tangential forces in surface grinding. These forces are correlated with such variables as wheel speed, table speed, depth of cut, direction of table motion, grit material and size, specimen hardness and dressing technique. Specific energy is found to be the best criterion for interpreting grinding data. X-ray diffraction methods are employed to study the surface stresses and the depth of cold work induced by grinding.
