2.1: Grinding Grinding can be defined as the rapid removal of material from a sample either to reduce it to a suitable size or to remove large irregularities from the surface. The grinding wheel or plate typically rotates at a high speed (around 200-1000rpm) and a coarse, bonded abrasive (> 40 µm) is used.
