The Study of Force Control with Artificial Intelligence in Ceramic Grinding Process

Ceramics is an important engineering material. Its characteristics, such as brittleness and hardness, post difficulty when it is being processed with high precision. Grinding is one of the methods to finish parts with high accuracy. However, it is necessary to control the grinding force to achieve the desired surface quality of ceramics parts. In this paper, we present the study results of the influence of machining parameters on the grinding force and its influence on machining performance such as machining speed and surface roughness. To control the grinding force, the Artificial intelligence control strategy is used in this study. The effect of grinding force control on stability is studied. It has been found that the machining process is more stable with ultrasonic vibration than that without it. Ultrasonic vibration enhances machining speed and surface quality.
