PELIDと3Dプリンタを用いた砥石製作システムによる砥粒分布制御の試み

抄録

In recent years, competition in the manufacturing industry is growing increasingly intense every year on a global-scale. For this reason, Higher performance and miniaturization of products, weight reduction are important challenges to companies. The same demands are also made to tools essential to manufacturing such as grinding wheels. To meet these demands, the authors are developing a system which combines 3D printing and PELID to build grinding wheels , ELID for improving the wheel surface to provide the required grinding wheel performance, PELID(Patterning with Electrostatically Injected Droplet) which is a liquid ejection technique for controlling the distribution of abrasives in the grinding wheel. This report discusses the results of reviewing the system for fabricating grinding wheels.
