Finishing is a basic requirement for obtaining the required surface quality in production of various components used many industries. A relatively new finishing process, called magnetic abrasive finishing, complex shaped surfaces. This article presents latest developments polishing and describes results obtained by research scientists based on their experiments field polishing.

To implement an automated fluid magnetic abrasive (FMA) finishing process, an online monitoring scheme is proposed based on characterising acoustic emission (AE) signals in this paper. According to the material removal mechanisms during the FMA finishing process, the AE generation and characteristics are predicted analytically to be dominated by the interactions between the surface asperities a...

The already initiated studies are based on size and forms of abrasive grains, but few studies have addressed the influence on the concentration of abrasive grains. This research has been done to remove some of the mysteries associated in the media "abrasives" or "chips" used in vibratory and barrel finishing, this process included within the functions and characte...

In the finishing process of optical glass, polishing with ceria, silica or zirconia slurry is conventionally adopted. The machining process, however, has problems involving inefficiency and a detrimental impact on the environment. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that the process be replaced with fixed-abrasive machining, but conventional fixed-abrasive tools have problems relating to low ...

High quality, highly efficient finishing processes are required for difficult-to-machine materials. Magnetic abrasive (MAF) process is a method that can obtain high accuracy surface using fine magnetic particles and particles, but has poor efficiency. On the contrary, fixed polishing (FAP) material removal efficiency often cannot provide high-quality at nano-scale. Therefore, this work proposes...
