This article deals with the experimental grinding of cermet materials. Two types of cermet materials from different suppliers were ground under constant grinding conditions using a diamond grinding wheel. The main aim was to determine the influence of the grinding on the degradation of the grinding wheel and changes in the grinding process. Both types of cermet were ground with the same strategy and the same number of passes. The grinding wheel was analysed during grinding using an optical scanning device to observe the changes on the grinding wheel surface. Clogging and wear of the grinding wheel occurred on the surface as the amount of material removed increased. All grinding tests were carried out without dressing or truing of the grinding wheel. Degradation of the grinding wheel had a big influence on the grinding process in terms of the spindle load during grinding. The roughness of the ground surface was also measured using the optical scanning device. The results from this work will be used for further research of cermet grinding.
