Abstract: The grinding principle of plane envelope is demonstrated with
the medium rack theory. The basic and general fixing patterns of
grinding involute worms with plane envelope method are
uniformed. The vector rotating method is originally applied to
calculate precisely the grinding wheel fixing angles γh and γh
under the general fixing pattern. It is proved with experiments
that the method is feasible.
Key words: Medium
