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.

Magnetic Abrasive Finishing is a significant process for finishing up to the micro-level. However, with the advancement of technology and hybrids like Viscoelastic magnetic abrasive Finishing and Magnetic abrasive Flow machining, it has become a nano finishing process. To improve the finishing process, the researchers have made a Model and tested the feasibility of the wind turbine magnet in Finishing. The Maxwell simulations were done for the cylindrical Specimen of Brass, Steel Aluminum. The simulations results were in accordance with the fact that the proposed wind turbine magnet may be used for the simulations.

In this paper, we propose a new ultra-high-precision magnetic abrasive finishing method for wire material which is considered to be difficult with the existing finishing process. The processing method uses a rotating magnetic field system with unbonded magnetic abrasive type. It is believed that this process can efficiently perform the ultra-high-precision finishing for producing a smooth surface finish and removing a diameter of wire material. For such a processing improvement, the following parameters are considered; rotational speed of rotating magnetic field, vibration frequency of wire material, and unbonded magnetic abrasive grain size. In order to evaluate the performance of the new finishing process for the wire material, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 1085 steel wire was used as the wire workpiece. The experimental results showed that the original surface roughness of AISI 1085 steel wire was enhanced from 0.25 µm to 0.02 µm for 60 s at 800 rpm of rotational speed. Also, the performance of the removed diameter was excellent. As the result, a new ultra-high-precision magnetic abrasive finishing using a rotating magnetic field with unbonded magnetic abrasive type could be successfully adopted for improving the surface roughness and removing the diameter of AISI 1085 steel wire material.

In the case of internal finishing of the bent section of a complex shaped tube, such as found in high purity fittings, by a magnetic abrasive finishing process, the magnetic field at the finishing area and, therefore, the finishing force are hardly uniform over the entire finishing area due to the geometry. This affects the abrasive behavior against the inner surface of the bent section, changing the finishing characteristics of SUS304 stainless steel fittings. In practice, non-uniformities in the surface finish remain at the bent section between the inside, outside, and lateral regions. This unevenness combines to cause difficulties in achieving uniform finishing. Magnetic abrasive is generally supplied with ferrous particles, and the ferrous particles experience greater magnetic force and play a role in pressing the magnetic abrasive against the target surface. This paper studies the finishing mechanism in view of the relationship between the magnetic field, the ferrous particles mixed with magnetic abrasive, and the finishing characteristics. The experiments identify the finishing conditions required for successfully diminishing the non-uniformity in the finished surface, and methods are recommended to satisfy the required conditions. The experiments using the proposed methods show the feasibility of producing a uniformly finished mirror surface.

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.

The magnetic abrasive finishing process of thin sleeve of Al alloy with different diameter is studied based on self-adaptive characteristics. Some technical innovations are done such as fixing smooth magnetic mandrel or slot magnetic mandrel and so on in the workpiece interior for improving the structure style of the working space and characteristic of magnetic field. Experiments on thin sleeve of Al alloy are done and their finishing effects are contrasted. Research results indicate that fixing slot magnetic spindle in the workpiece interior can increase efficiency and improve quality for large thin non-magnetic sleeve.

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.
