(110) It can be seen from Table 6 that since the diamond grinding wheels in Examples 7-11 have good self-sharpening ability, the trimming step is omitted, thus the trimming cost is saved, and the trimming time is transferred to the processing of the workpiece; during the same period of time, the processing amount is increased by about 17%, and the processing efficiency is improved; moreover, during the grinding process, the grinding load (resistance) is decreased, the sharpness of the grinding wheel is improved, and the yield is comparable. The detection results show that the diamond grinding wheels in the present invention have high self-sharpness, high strength, and high processing efficiency, is uniformly consumed during the grinding process, and do not need to be trimmed during the process of being used in the whole life cycle, moreover, during the grinding process, they maintain good grinding force all the time, fundamentally solving the problems of long trimming time and high trimming cost of the diamond grinding wheel, and possessing good economic benefit.
