    I. INTRODUCTION
    With the increasing requirements of modern industrial technology and high-performance technological products in respect of part
    precision, surface integrity, machining efficiency and batch quality stability, grinding has played a more and more important role.
    It becomes an important part of advanced machining technology and equipment, and is a research frontier in manufacturing
    science. Grinding is the process of removing metal by the application of abrasives which are bonded to form a rotating wheel or
    belt. When the moving abrasive particles contact the workpiece, they act as tiny cutting tools, each particle cutting a tiny chip
    from the workpiece. It is a common error to believe that grinding abrasive wheels remove material by a rubbing action; actually,
    the process is as much a cutting action as drilling, milling, and lathe turning. Grinding is used to finish work pieces that must
    show high surface quality (e.g., low surface roughness) and high accuracy of shape and dimension. As the accuracy in dimensions
    in grinding is on the order of 0.005mm, in most applications it tends to be a finishing operation and removes comparatively little
    metal, about 0.25 to 0.50 mm depth. However, there are some roughing applications in which grinding removes high volumes of
    metal quite rapidly. Thus, grinding is a diverse field. Therefore we have designed grinding machine in miniature and portable
    form which can give very precise machining and grind up to 0.01-0.005 mm depth with high accuracy.

    II. COMPONENTS/ MATERIALS REQUIRED


    2.1. AC MOTOR
    An induction motor (IM) is a type of alternating current motor where power is supplied to the rotating device by means of
    electromagnetic induction. It is also called asynchronous motor. An electric motor converts electrical power to mechanical power
    in its rotor (rotating part). There are several ways to supply power to the rotor. In a DC motor this power is supplied to the
    armature directly from a DC source, while in an induction motor this power is induced in the rotating device. An induction motor
    is sometimes called a rotating transformer because the stator (stationary part) is essentially the primary side of the transformer and
    the rotor (rotating part) is the secondary side. Induction motors are widely used, especially poly phase induction motors, which
    are frequently used in industrial drives. Induction motors are now the preferred choice for industrial motors due to their rugged
    construction, absence of brushes.

    2.2. BEARING
    A bearing is a device to permit constrained relative motion between two parts, typically rotation or linear movement. Bearings
    may be classified broadly according to the motions they allow and according to their principle of operation as well as by the
    directions of applied loads they can handle. Low friction bearings are often important for efficiency, to reduce wear and to
    facilitate high speeds. Essentially, a bearing can reduce friction by virtue of its shape, by its material, or by introducing and
    containing a fluid between surfaces.

    2.3. MACHINE VICE


    It is a device consisting of two parallel jaws for holding a work piece; one of the jaws is fixed and the other movable by a screw, a
    lever, or a cam. When used for holding a work piece during hand operations, such as filing, hammering, or sawing, the vise may
    be permanently bolted to a bench. In vises designed to hold metallic work pieces, the active faces of the jaws are hardened steel
    plates, often removable, with serrations that grip the work piece; to prevent damage to soft parts, the permanent jaws can be
    covered with temporary jaws made from sheet copper or leather. Pipe vises have double V-shaped jaws that grip in four places
    instead of only two. Woodworking vises have smooth jaws, often of wood, and rely on friction alone rather than on serrations.
    For holding work pieces on the tables of machine tools, vises with smooth hardened-steel jaws and flat bases are used. These
    machine vises are portable but may be clamped to the machine table when in use; means may also be provided for swiveling the
    active part of the vise so that the work piece can be held in a variety of positions relative to the base. For holding parts that cannot
    be clamped with flat jaws, special jaws can be provided.

    2.4. BELT GRINDING


    Belt grinding is an abrasive machining process used on metals and other materials. It is typically used as a finishing process in
    industry. A belt, coated in abrasive material, is run over the surface to be processed in order to remove material or produce the
    desired finish The belt grinding process is variable by adjusting certain parameters such as belt speed, grinding pressure, feed
    speed, durometer of the contact drum, size of the contact drum and the abrasive belt that is used. The machines can be made for
    wet or dry operation. Furthermore, a wide belt grinding machine can be constructed with single or multiple heads. The first head
    is used for coarse grinding and the next heads gradually make a finer finish. Wide belt grinding is also used as a high stock
    removal method for special metals (e.g. stainless steel, titanium, and nickel alloys). Belt grinding belongs to elastic grinding and
    has the multi-functions of grinding, milling and polishing, etc. It is characterized by good work piece-shape adaptability, low
    vibration of grinding system, low roughness of machining surface, maintenance of residual compressive stresses, low grinding
    temperature and resistance to work piece burning; it also has the feature of cool grinding. The V-shaped section can be finished
    only by the belt grinding method.

    III. GRINDING METHODS


    Wide belt grinding is a familiar process in industry as well as home applications. There are several basic methods for belt
    grinding: Stroke belt, Platen belt, Wide belt In general there are three basic elements of the belt-grinding machine: work rest
    support, grinding head and a regulating head. These components differ for all the methods but in general the work piece is pressed
    between the grinding head and the rest support. The objective of the regulating head is to coordinate the belt pressure. Wide belt
    grinding One of the most common methods is wide belt grinding. The belt grinding process is variable by adjusting certain
    parameters such as belt speed, grinding pressure, feed speed, duro meter of the contact drum, size of the contact drum and the
    abrasive belt that is used. The machines can be made for wet or dry operation. Furthermore, a wide belt grinding machine can be
    constructed with single or multiple heads. The first head is used for coarse grinding and the next heads gradually make a finer
    finish. Wide belt grinding is also used as a high stock removal method for special metals (e.g. stainless steel, titanium, and nickel
    alloys)

    IV. WORKING PRINCIPLE


    In this construction ac motor is used to drive the abrasive belt wheel. This rotational motion is given to the roller. At the end of
    roller one more roller is meshed for the conveyor to run. The abrasive belt is fixed to the conveyor for grinding operation. Now
    the placing of the tool will results in grinding. The other end of the conveyor is fitted to a roller which rotates the conveyor. Thus,
    this Belt type grinding machine is generally used for polishing the small metallic components and worn the surface of woody
    components. In this machine abrasive belt fitted on the rollers. The coupling is used for transmission of power from electric motor
    to the roller shaft. As the first shaft from the motor is rotated then all the rollers rotated with same speed because of abrasive belt
    wound over the surface.
    When we keep the any small part on abrasive belt and apply the pressure over the surface of the belt, then the small component
    polished. Because of this machine, good quality of glassing also obtained for good looking component. The abrasive belt is
    available in various sizes in the market. Belt grinding machine may be dry belt wet belt or combination belt. Belt grinding
    machine is used for heavy stock removal or for light polishing work depending upon the type of belt grade used. This Oblique
    grinding machine is used for the grinding of any oblique surfaces. The grinding can be done for the stationary object. The angle
    grinding is done based on the position of the two adjustable rollers in the machine. The flexibility of the belts are adjusted using
    the screw. Thus, the finishing will be smooth and any angled parts are finished.
