Eight principles of centerless grinding, number six

6. Keeping cool is mandatory during centerless grinding.

The coolant is used for centerless grinding, which not only keeps the grinding wheel cool, but also removes heat from the area where the workpiece is in contact with the grinding wheel.

Centerless grinding requires the use of a properly pressurized coolant to overcome the air barrier between the grinding wheel and the workpiece during grinding. This allows the coolant to flow through the space between the two.

The coolant step in centerless grinding is critical to prevent heat from returning to the workpiece or grinding wheel. Otherwise, it may be difficult to maintain the tolerance of roundness and straightness, and thermal damage may even lead to foaming and cracking of grinding wheels.
