A newly available recording system for monitoring headcheck elimination during <strong>grinding</strong> allows<br />

effective control of surface fatigue while minimizing metal loss <strong>by</strong> artificial wear. Practical application of<br />

the proposed strategies will help to fine-tune specifications for <strong>grinding</strong> according to local conditions.<br />
