Surface topography of cylindrical precision grinding based on multi-source information fusion

In this study, spindle precision bearings and rotary vector (RV) reducer thin-walled bearings were taken as research objects. Based on the analysis of the metamorphic layer of bearings, the multidimensional research on the surface topography of parts by multisource information fusion (grinding force, grinding temperature, grinding strain, grinding vibration, and grinding acoustic emission (AE)) was put forward. The research shows that there are "dark layers" in the outer ring and inner ring of spindle precision bearings, and "white layers" and "dark layers" in the outer ring and inner ring of RV reducer thin-walled bearings. Feed speed has the greatest influence on grinding force, wheel speed, and grinding depth have the greatest influence on grinding temperature, wheel speed has the greatest influence on grinding strain, feed speed, and wheel speed have the greatest influence on grinding vibration, and workpiece speed has the greatest influence on grinding AE. When the grinding force is minimum (x-axis: 1.3 N, y-axis: 0.9 N); the grinding temperature is highest (110.8 degrees C), the grinding strain is maximum (46.6%), the grinding vibration is maximum (vibration range: 400 m/s(2)-400 m/s(2)) and the grinding AE is maximum (variation range: 2 V-1 V), the surface topography is most prominent (Ra: 0.97 mu m). Grinding wheel speed and grinding depth have the greatest influence on surface topography, followed by feed speed, while workpiece speed has less influence.
