This study introduced a method based on magnetic field assisted finishing mechanism for micromachining the inner surfaces of Aluminum tubes. In this approach, using the alternating magnetic field of an AC electromotor, abrasive particles were formed as Magnetic Rods (Magnetic Clusters) and surface micromachining was carried out by the dynamic particular pattern made by an alternating magnetic f...

In the present research work, effect of several process parameters on the machining characteristics of borosilicate glass has been reported. The machining characteristics that are being investigated are material removal rate (MRR) and tool wear rate (TWR). Four different process parameters were considered for this study power rating of the machine, static load, slurry concentration and abrasive...

Cemented carbides are outstanding engineering materials widely used in quite demanding material removal applications. In this study, laser surface texturing is implemented for enhancing, at the surface level, the intrinsic bulk-like tribological performance of these materials. In this regard, hexagonal pyramids patterned on the cutting surface of a tungsten cemented carbide grade (WC–CoNi) have...

a water jet machining is an industrial tool capable of cutting a wide variety of materials using avery high-pressure jet of water, or a mixture of water and an abrasive substance. this paperaddresses the concept of the intelligent knowledge base system (ikbs) for optimization of productdesign and manufacturing process for water jet machining in computer based concurrentengineering environment. ...

This paper presents the use of Cellular Automata (CA) for modelling micro abrasive machining. A onedimensional CA was initially used to model the workpiece, as having different heights, to represent the roughness; and the forces from the abrasive grits were modelled to randomly erode the workpiece, as such smoothening out and polishing the surface. The modelling was then extended further to two...

Abstract—Ultrasonic machining is one of the most widely used non-traditional machining processes for machining of materials that are relatively brittle, hard, and fragile such as advanced ceramics, refractories, crystals, quartz etc. Present article has been targeted at investigating the impact of different experimental conditions (power rating, cobalt content, tool material, thickness of work ...

This paper presents a rage of variable machining factors which influence substantially friction directly or by the abrasive media wear developed in cutting zone. Abrasive flow is method surfaces complex holes and curved surface. In case traditional stream treatment methods (AFM) it difficult to obtain uniform roughness radial decomposition during polishing complicated openings, results from une...
