Review of grinding temperature theory and measurement for the needs of the times: Promoting the development of advanced manufacturing

Abstract

Green and intelligent manufacturing has become a key development trend in the industrial sector. Grinding as a widely used machining process, advancing towards greener and smarter practices. Grinding generates significant heat, which critically affects the processed material. Therefore, accurately measuring and controlling the grinding temperature has become increasingly important. Various principles and numerous grinding temperature models have been proposed to address this challenge. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the development of grinding temperature measurement technologies, tracing their evolution from traditional methods to modern techniques, and from foundational principles to practical applications. It elaborates on diverse measurement methods, including direct and indirect techniques, and compares these methods in terms of measurement accuracy, response speed, application scope, and operational complexity. The advantages and limitations of each technology are highlighted. Additionally, the key factors influencing the accuracy of grinding temperature measurements are discussed, along with strategies to address the shortcomings of existing methods through technological innovation. This review consolidates existing research and proposes directions for future advancements in grinding temperature measurement technologies to support intelligent manufacturing and high-performance manufacturing.
