Theoretical Estimation of Dicing Blade Grindability for Different Abrasive Grain Sizes

Grindability of a dicing blade was estimated from dicing speed under constant feeding-force dicing process. Theoretical dicing speeds were calculated from the plowing speeds of abrasive diamond grains. It was concluded that grindability depends on the size, number and distribution of abrasive grains
