Grinding is an important means of realizing precision and ultra-precision machining of workpiece surface. The surface patterning of workpiece directly affects its mechanical properties such as friction, wear, contact stiffness, fitting property. Therefore, prediction of the geometry of the workpiece surface is very important to evaluate the workpiece quality to perform mechanical function accurately. In this paper using MATLAB simulation, prediction for the geometry pattern of the workpiece according to the developed shape of the grinding wheel dressed by thread cutting was studied. The model for the geometry of the grinding wheel surface was first developed and subsequently, a new simulation model for surface pattern by grinding process was established. The simulation results could be used to optimize the grinding process and to improve the workpiece surface quality or predict the surface pattern by given grinding parameters.
