Abrasive machining

Abrasive machining is when we use tiny particles or grit to rub against a surface to make it smoother or change its shape. Think of it like when you use sandpaper to smooth out a piece of wood. The sandpaper has tiny particles on it that rub against the wood to make it smoother.

But instead of just using sandpaper, abrasive machining can use different types of particles or grit depending on what we want to do to the surface. For example, if we want to remove a lot of material quickly, we might use a coarser grit. And if we want to make really precise shapes or finishes, we might use a finer grit.

The types of particles or grit we use can also depend on the material we're working with. For example, some materials might be too hard for certain types of grit, or some grit might damage a delicate material.

Overall, abrasive machining is a way to make things smoother or change their shape by rubbing them with tiny particles or grit, and it can be used with a variety of materials and particle types depending on what we want to achieve.
