Performance of the Iron Based Diamond Tools for Flat Glass Grinding

Grinding of brittle material such as glass is becoming crucial in consequence of rapid growth in the area of white goods. Industrial area, during flat glass processing iron based diamond wheels can be selected in order to improve the service life of the grinding wheels. In this study, diamond tool based on iron were applied on the experiments. Experiments were conducted on the industrial glass plant. As a result of experiments, service life of the grinding wheels and surface roughness of work pieces were determined. The outcomes show that the iron based grinding wheels are useful for grinding of flat glass.
