Development of software for automated selection of abrasive tools for grinding operation
Keywords:
grinding wheel, automated selection of abrasive tool, software for selection of toolAbstract
The practical problem of a choice of an abrasive tool on grinding operation consisting in
complexity of assignment of numerous characteristics of the tool and high influence of qualification of the process engineer is considered. The solution of this problem by software development
for an automated choice of an abrasive tool is proposed. The algorithm which is based on some
existing tool choice technique is necessary for software development. As a basis the technique
from the reference manual of the Ural scientific research institute of abrasives and grinding considering the main physical correlations and regularities of processes of high speed processing is
selected. By a technique the integrated algorithm which is consisting of nine units and including
a choice of all key parameters of an abrasive tool is constructed. The algorithm is realized in
the instrumental environment Microsoft Visual on C# object-oriented programming language
therefore the software including a set of reference tables and the device of a choice of necessary
values from these tables is received. The example of functioning of the application is shown:
on the basis of the entered basic data showing a certain production situation, the software selects
three suitable markings of grinding wheels in process of their preference. Use of the developed
software showed that time spent for a choice of a grinding wheel equals to about 10–30 seconds,
and quality of a choice isn't influenced by qualification of the process engineer. In this regard,
the developed software module allows to solve an objective, to increase efficiency of processing
by grinding and to reduce time of technological preparation of production.
