In this paper, nickel phosphorous diamond (Ni-P-D) composite plating is introduced as a new method to fabricate a micro diamond wheel with a diameter of φ450 μm. In the fabrication process, the steel substrate (SKD-11) is first ground to a ball end shape with a radius of 200 μm. Nickel phosphorous (...
