SINCE THE ADAPTATION OF CNC TO PRECISION GRINDING, THE PROCESS HAS GONE THROUGH A REVOLUTION. WITH BOTH THE NEW, SIMPLE-TO-OPEATE AND PROGRAM MACHINES, ID/OD CYLINDRICAL, AND FLAT PARTS CAN NOW BE GROUND AUTOMATICALLY IN ONE'S OFF OR SMALL BATCHES. THIS GRIND CAN TAKE PLACE BOTH FOR THE TOOLROOM AND HIGH-PRECISION PRODUCTION, WITH LITTLE OR NO OPERATOR INTERVENTION. AUTOMATIC DRESSING--AND WHERE NECESSARY, THE USE OF IN-PROCESS GAGING EQUIPMENT--HAVE ALSO IMPROVED THE ATTAINABLE QUALITY OF THE PROCESS. THIS PAPER DESCRIBES THE UNIQUE ADAPTATION OF A CNC SYSTEM TO PRECISION GRINDING MACHINES, AND REVIEWS SOME OF THE NEWLY DEVELOPED TECHNIQUES OF PRECISION GRINDING.
