Editorial Notes: Here's a single source detailing what industry knows about machining ceramics with sections written by experts from leading research centers in Japan, the United States, and Europe. Noteworthy is the detailed discussion of key issues ranging from rouch shaping to precision dimensioning and polishing: maintaining structural strength, part quality, process methods, economics, and typical equipment requirements. This works covers not only grinding as we typically understand it but also processes like lapping and honing for ceramics. Though you can expect to encounter a few sections written as a scholarly discussion using mathematical equations, the book is mostly a summary of research and manufacturing experiences readable by any professional who designs and/or uses grinding processes for ceramics. Introductory sections provide excellent background materials giving the scope of facets of ceramic machining such as honing. A section on material properties covers important characteristics affecting machining of ceramics comparing metals, hard metals, ceramics and superhard materials. The text also describes tests, measurements and evaluation of ceramic properties in this rapidly developing technology.
