EXTERNAL CYLINDRICAL PROFILE GRINDING WITH CBN GRINDING WHEELS CAN BE USED TO INCREASE THE FLEXIBILITY OF GRINDING OPERATIONS. WITH A STRAIGHT WHEEL WORKPLACE ALIGNMENT, PARTS CAN USUALLY BE COMPLETED IN A SINGLE FIXTURE, AVOIDING FAULTS DUE TO RECLAMPING. THE WHEELS USED IN THIS GRINDING PROCESS HAVE A VARIETY OF EDGE GEOMETRIES. A COMPARISON OF STOCK REMOVAL USING DIFFERENT ROUGHING ZONE GEOMETRIES INDICATES THE ADVANTAGES OF A CONICALLY DRESSED ROUGHING ZONE. THE WORKPIECE ROUGHNESS CAN BE IMPROVED WITHOUT PROLONGING PROCESS TIME BY WIDENING THE SPARK-OUT ZONE OR MODIFYING THE CBN GRINDING WHEEL TOPOGRAPHY.
