Dressing With Diamond Dressing Tools
DRESSING WITH DIAMOND BLADE TOOLS
Guidelines:
Wheel surface speed:
-dress at full working surface speed
Always use blade tool in such a fashion that the diamond-free section on the back of the blade touches the grinding wheel first. This will ensure a free-cutting dressing operation.

Apply ample amounts of grinding fluid while dressing as diamonds are very heat sensitive. Ensure uninterrupted flow.
In order to increase the wheel's surface roughness, increase the crossfeed velocity vd
rather than increasing the depth of dressing infeed ad.
Depth of cut ad = 0.005 tp 0.02 mm (0.0002 to 0.0008 inch)
Guidelines for dressing crossfeed velocity vd:
ns = grinding wheel RPM.
