Truing Systems

Truing Parameters Calculator

The Truing Parameters Calculator is the result of a 3-year collaboration between Rush Machinery, the International Grinding Institute, and Dr. Jeffrey Badger, the ‘Grinding Doc’. Rush Machinery commissioned the project that was later presented at the 2008 CIRP General Assembly in Tokyo by Dražumerič, Badger, Klement, and Krajnik titled “Truing of Diamond Wheels–Geometry, Kinematics and Removal Mechanisms,” published in the CIRP Annals, volume 57, pages 345-348.

Episode 83: Defining truing parameters

For the 83rd episode of Cutting Tool Engineering's Grinding Doc video series, Dr. Jeffrey Badger visits with Rush Machinery in Rushville, N.Y., to begin a three-part series devoted to establishing scientific truing parameters. With the help of Rush Machinery President Bill Freese, Badger conducts a series of truing tests using his Grinding Doc Grindometer.
