Abstract
In cylindrical traverse grinding, static and dynamic characteristics of grinding operating system change with longitudinal grinding position. And regenerative effect in grinding process is complicated, too. For the above reasons, chatter vibration in cylindrical traverse grinding is influenced in complexity. In this research, a development of chatter vibration in traverse grinding has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. Introducting the extended regenerative theory, this phenomenon is discussed in the range of transient with the characteristics roots of grinding system. It was found that the theoretical results were similar to the experimental results, which chatter phenomenon differed with each traverse grinding position.
