Improving the surface roughness quality of 3D printed components, especially metallic ones, which are fabricated from selective laser melting (SLM) method, has drawn enormous attention research community. It should be noted that various studies on this topic have reported precise results can obtained with techniques indeed not cost-effective. Differing itself these studies, manuscript investiga...

A new polishing process for metallic parts has been developed by simultaneously coupling drag finishing and electrochemical polishing. This hybrid process, called PEMEC, enables an improvement in the surface roughness within some minutes, at same time, preserves shape of edges. is based on a synergistic effect between abrasive chemical mechanisms. It confirmed its suitability to be applied comp...

Achieving roughness parameters on tooth flanks for highly loaded gears and creating their non-directional surface texture are key to obtaining the required gearbox lifetime, durability, performance. Many finishing techniques well-known described in technical literature, including gear teeth final grinding, shaving, honing, superfinishing create proper condition. Unfortunately, there is still a ...
