Flat grinding by cup wheel’s end face usually is more efficient than other types of grinding because many abrasive grains simultaneously take part in the process; this leads to the decrease in machined surface roughness. At the same time, due to a large area and duration time of contact between the face wheel and the detail, this particular type of grinding is characterized by high heat release rate. In order to achieve the required quality face grinding is usually conducted at reduced power. That is why determination of relations and patterns in the process of face grinding of flat surfaces, which influence the heat-stressed state of the working zone would allow to increase machining efficiency of flat details.
