Due to the high cost of modern high-performance grinding wheels, it is necessary to use them rationally, i.e., with the minimum required number of dressings. It implies optimal gear grinding wheel dressing cycles. The method proposed in the paper makes it possible to establish a connection between the grinding wheel dressing interval and the number of active working strokes during which this gear grinding wheel performed useful work to remove the grinding stock allowance (the paper’s novelty). Work strokes during which the grinding wheel performs “air grinding” should not be counted as active (useful) ones. It is proposed to identify such “idle strokes” based on information about the actual location of the gear grinding stock allowance on the left and right sides of each gear tooth gap. The gear grinding stock allowance actual location is defined by the Renishaw contact probe or by acoustic emission method in advance of gear grinding. So the dressing interval has to depend on the actual load on the gear grinding wheel. This load will depend on the number of active working strokes. In turn, the latter depends on the actual gear stock allowance location before gear grinding. The number of “idle strokes” need not be considered when determining the grinding wheel dressing interval. It allows for reducing the number of dressings (about 10–30%) of the expensive gear grinding wheel at the gear grinding rough stage, thereby increasing the grinding wheel life (up to its complete wear).
