In order to control the forming surface quality of signal crystal turbine blade tenon teeth in the creep feed grinding, the influence of the creep feed grinding parameters on the grinding surface integrity of DD5 nickel-based single crystal superalloy was investigated via orthogonal experiment. The results showed that the surface roughness along vertical grinding direction was ranged at 0.56-0.74 μm at the grinding wheel speed range of 15-30 m/s, feeding velocity range of 120-210 mm/min and grinding depth range of 0.1-0.7 mm, and the surface roughness in the grinding direction is about 1/5 of that in the vertical grinding direction. The surface topography and texture results showed that there were the obvious grooves and ridges on the grinding surface caused by the grain ploughing and scratching, the length and height of grooves and ridges on the grinding surface changed obviously under different processing parameters, and the three-dimensional topography of the grinding surface fluctuated obviously. The length of grooves and ridges along the grinding direction were sensitive to the speed of grinding wheel, waviness of grooves and ridges along the vertical grinding direction were sensitive to the grinding depth and workpiece feed rate. The different degrees of work hardening effect were presented at the grinding surface, the biggest work hardening effect achieved at 11.6%, and the maximum depth of work hardening effect was 110 μm. The distinct plastic deformation appeared at the grinding surface. The γ phase presented slip deformation along the grinding direction with various degrees, and the γ' phase presented skewing, twisting, broken and fracture, the maximum depth of plastic deformation was 2.92 μm. The work hardening effect of DD5 creep feed grinding mainly due to the plastic deformation degree at the grinding surface. The experimental conclusions provided theoretical guidance for DD5 signal crystal turbine blade tenon teeth.
