The Research of Soaking Process of Grinding Wheels and Its Cutting Action

This paper describes the optimized soaking process and its cutting action of the wheels soaked in KI solution. By employing the soaked wheel, the pores cloging and chip sticking on the surface of the wheel are greatly improved, which results in the lower cutting force and temperature and improved surface quality. Besides the simple soaking process, it is also convenient and inexpensive.
