Grinding is a processing method of removing excess materials from the workpiece with super abrasives, which can process materials of any hardness. As a traditional machining model, it can obtain high workpiece precision and surface quality, high processing efficiency and low cost. It occupies a very high proportion in the field of advanced manufacturing. Different grinding methods will produce different grinding defects in the application process, and the most influential factor on grinding defects is grinding wheel. This paper describes in detail the defects caused by the specific grinding wheel factors and the corresponding dressing methods, as shown in the table below.
