The process of grinding wheel quality inspection includes the following key steps:

1. Visual Inspection: First, conduct a comprehensive visual inspection of the grinding wheel for physical defects such as cracks, damage, and deformation. Also, confirm that the type of grinding wheel matches its intended use and that it bears the correct specification labels.

2. Tap Test: Use a metal rod to tap the grinding wheel lightly and judge the integrity based on the sound produced. A grinding wheel free from cracks will produce a clear, ringing sound, whereas a dull sound may indicate the presence of cracks.

3. Verification of Specifications and Markings: Check and verify the markings on the grinding wheel, such as manufacturer information, abrasive type, and maximum operating speed, to ensure they are legible and conform to the order requirements.

4. Dynamic Balancing Test: Employ specialized equipment to check the balance of the grinding wheel during rotation. An unbalanced wheel will produce vibrations during use, affecting precision and safety.

5. Dimensional Measurement: Accurately measure key dimensions of the grinding wheel (such as diameter and bore) to ensure they meet specified tolerances and fitting requirements.

6. Strength Test (Optional): In some cases, it may be necessary to subject the grinding wheel to a strength test, especially for those that will be used under high-stress conditions.

7. Recording and Reporting: Document all test results and compare them against quality standards. If the grinding wheel passes all tests, it can be approved for further use; if not, it should be returned to the manufacturer or discarded.

8. Final Review: A responsible person from the quality control department should perform a final review to ensure that all tests have been completed and that quality standards are met.

These steps ensure the safety and performance of the grinding wheel during use, thereby safeguarding production efficiency and operator safety.
