However, the processing performance, material removal behaviour, and self-sharpening mechanisms of AD abrasives on lapping discs with different surface structures remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we designed different groove-structured lapping discs and combined them with AD abrasives to conduct lapping experiments on sapphire wafers to investigate the processing performance of groove-structured lapping discs on AD abrasives and reveal the material removal behaviour and dynamic self-sharpening mechanism of AD abrasives. The results show that the groove-structured lapping disc exerts a guiding and restraining effect on the AD abrasives, improving processing uniformity and reducing their wear rate. Additionally, the groove structure enhances the vortex effect of the lapping slurry, which further improves the self-sharpening ability and processing performance of the AD abrasives. The polyurethane disc with a cylindrical groove-2# structure and a size ratio 1:100 produced the best processing results. At a processing cycle of 30 min, the average particle size of AD abrasive was 26.2 μm, which minimized micro-fracture and resulted in a processing effect with an material removal rate (MRR) of 2.51 μm/min and surface roughness (Ra) of 10.42 nm.
