            | Abstract: 
                This study applied a dual-optical-fiber real-time measurement system to precision surface grinding of FC-300 gray cast iron, focusing on internal strain and temperature variations. The system uses attached and free fibers to measure force- and heat-induced strains, respectively, with decoupling achieved through wavelength shift theory. In 14 grinding trials, the maximum temperature-induced strain reached 500 με for workpiece A-2 and 1200 με for workpiece B-2, while force-induced compressive strains peaked at -400 με and -615.63 με, respectively. These findings demonstrate the system's accuracy in capturing real-time strain variations, optimizing machining processes, and its potential for industrial applications.
