The magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) process is an ultra-precision surface finishing process. In order to further improve the finishing efficiency and surface quality, the MAF process using an alternating magnetic field was proposed in the previous research, and it was proven that the alternating magnetic field has advantages compared with the static magnetic field. In order to further develop the process, this study investigated the effect on finishing characteristics when the alternating current waveform is a square wave. The difference between the fluctuation behavior of the magnetic cluster in two alternating magnetic fields (sine wave and square wave) is observed and analyzed. Through analysis, it can be concluded that the use of a square wave can make the magnetic cluster fluctuate faster, and as the size of the magnetic particles decreases, the difference between the magnetic cluster fluctuation speed of the two waveforms is greater. The experimental results show that the surface roughness of SUS304 stainless steel plate improves from 328 nm Ra to 14 nm Ra within 40 min.

This research studies the factors affecting the conditions required for successful uniform internal finishing of SUS304 stainless steel bent tube by a Magnetic abrasive finishing process. In particular, the effects of the magnetic field and ferrous particles were investigated. Local intensification of the magnetic field is accomplished by offsetting the axis of pole rotation from elbow axis. This effect enables local control of the material removal rate, which leads to uniformity in the finished surface regardless of the initial surface conditions. A two-phase finishing process controlling the size of the ferrous particles is proposed to achieve efficient fine surface finishing.

In this paper, a new plane magnetic abrasive finishing process by using alternating magnetic field is proposed to improve the efficiency and surface precision. In alternating magnetic field, the forced direction of magnetic particles is changing. Therefore, magnetic particles could produce the up and down movement, which promote the scatter of magnetic particles , improve the roll of abrasive particles and enhance the utilization of abrasive. In order to know well the magnetic intensity distribution in processing area, measured the magnetic flux density. Finishing force is important to understand the mechanism of material removal, investigated to the finishing force and contrasted to the movement changes of magnetic particles in water-soluble finishing fluid and oily finishing fluid. A set of experimental devices have been designed to realize surface polishing on C2801 brass plate, the results proved the feasibility of this method, which can improve the workpiece surface quality.

In this paper, we propose a new plane magnetic abrasive finishing method, applicable to planes, that uses the alternating magnetic fields to solve problems such as the easy deformation and poor recovery of a magnetic brush in conventional magnetic abrasive finishing method. Compared with the magnetic brush used in conventional magnetic abrasive finishing, that in the new method can stably shape a workpiece under an alternating magnetic field. To determine the optimal finishing parameters, we focused on studying the effects of spindle rotational speed, size of diamond particle, and frequency of alternating magnetic field on the finishing surface. Then, according to the obtained optimal finishing parameters, multi-stage finishing experiments were performed with the new method. The results show that surface roughness can be improved from 230 nm Ra to 19 nm Ra in 60 min with the proposed method.
