SUPERABRASIVE TOOLS HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED IN MACHINING DIFFICULT TO GRIND MATERIALS. LATELY A BREAKTHROUGH WAS ACHIEVED IN HIGH-SPEED, HIGH-PERFORMANCE GRINDING TO ECONOMICALLY REPLACE TURNING, MILLING, OR BROACHING, WHERE THE MAIN TARGET IS TO OBTAIN A HIGH STOCK REMOVAL. MORE AND MORE APPLICATIONS ARE NOW SOLVED, WHICH EXPLOIT THE HIGH WEAR RESISTANCE OF THE SUPERABRASIVE GRITS TO KEEP THE ACCURATE PROFILE OF THE TOOL OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME: SLOT GRINDING, GEAR GRINDING. THIS PAPER OUTLINES SOME KEY AREAS OF CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS TO MEET FUTURE NEEDS.
