Abstract
In grinding technology, the application of superabrasives and increasing demands for higher productivity and higher quality require an appropriate selection of optimum set-up parameters. An efficient way to determine and test these parameters is modeling and simulating the grinding process. A visualization of the results can support the choice of the parameters and increase the knowledge of the complex grinding process.
This paper describes a web-based visualization tool on the basis of a kinematic simulation. The tool allows the visualization of the surface of an already ground workpiece as well as the changing shape of the work-piece during the grinding process. Two methods for the visualization of the grinding-objects are implemented. One method describes the scene with the Virtual Reality Modeling Language, the other one uses a renderer to create the images.
