Popis: In this article, a method of grinding small ceramic elements using hyperboloid and conical grinding wheels was presented. The method allowed for machining with a lower material removal speed and extending the grinding zone without reducing the efficiency of the process. In order to assess the process output parameters, numerical simulations were carried out for single-pass machining. This strategy allows for automation of the process. Grinding with a low material removal speed is recommended for the machining of small and thin elements, since this can avoid fracturing the elements. The methodology for selecting process parameters as well as the results of the abrasive grains activity analyses were presented. The analyses also concerned the roughness of machined surfaces and the variability of their textures. This grinding method was applied in the production of small ceramic elements that are used in the construction of electronic systems, and in the processing of small piezoceramic parts. This grinding technique could also be used in other grinding processes, where the removal of small machining allowances with high efficiency is required.
