Abrasive machining is one of the most important processes used in manufacturing engineering to remove unwanted material and to obtain the desired geometry and surface quality. Abrasive machining processes are processes where material is removed from a work piece using a multitude of hard angular abrasive particles or grains which may or may not be bonded to form a tool. Abrasive Machining discusses the fundamentals and advances in the abrasive machining processes, and provides a complete overview of the newly developing areas in the field including but not limited to, high efficiency deep grinding and micro and nanogrinding.
