In recent years, Fluid Jet Polishing (FJP) has been studied for its potential as a finishing method on optical lenses, mirrors and molds for a number of materials, such a glass and nickel. In this paper, the surface integrity of binderless tungsten carbide after polishing by FJP was studied experimentally. Two aspects in particular were focused on: (1) identifying process conditions under which...

Currently, an automated surface treatment or finishing (e.g., abrasive blasting, cleaning or painting) is performed in two consecutive steps: first processing by tool, second quality evaluation by sensor. Often, a finished surface has defects like areas not properly processed. This is caused by path inaccuracy or errors in tool deployment. The defected areas can be detected only during a subseq...

This paper presents experimental results of wear process under dry and boundary lubricated metallic (AISI 1034/AISI 52100) contacting bodies with different surfaces morphologies subjected to a wide range of kinematic fretting conditions. Analysis of damage mode observed under such fretting conditions is elucidated in context of surfaces morphologies therefore associated with surface manufacturi...

A crucial and costly step in the whole manufacturing process is precision super finishing procedure. of final involved production components. It accounts for a respectable portion cost overall, mostly uncontrolled, requires lot manpower. Abrasive finish methods are being developed to address issues including high direct costs components with particular characteristics inaccessible places. vast ...

Abstract A magnetic abrasive finishing is a non-traditional technology utilizes flexible brush comprises of particles under the influence field to perform nano-finishing. The material removal ( MR ) and percentage change in surface roughness (%∆ R are responses governing efficiency process. But, high during operation leads loss form/shape finished surface. compromise has be made considering two...
