The magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) process is an ultra-precision surface finishing technology. In order to further improve the finishing efficiency and continuity, a magnetic abrasive finishing process using the circulatory system to renew magnetic abrasive slurry was proposed. This study investigated the mechanism of the compound magnetic finishing fluid in the process using the conveyor belt as the carrier to complete the circulation and finishing through simulation and theoretical analysis. The influence of the different distribution states of the magnetic finishing fluid in the conveyor belt and the finishing area on the finishing characteristics is observed and analyzed, in addition to a series of experiments to explore the feasibility of finishing polychlorotrifluoroethylene resin plate through this process. Experimental results show that as the working gap decreases, the distribution width of compound magnetic finishing fluid on the conveyor belt becomes larger, and the distribution of the points of action on the workpiece in the finishing area is significantly different and the area increases, and obtains a higher finishing force and finishing efficiency. In this study, the surface roughness of polychlorotrifluoroethylene resin plate was improved from 274 nm Ra to 34 nm Ra within 15 min.

Polychlorotrifluoroethylene material is used in industry as a material with excellent insulation, impact resistance and acid and alkali resistance. In this study, we used a magnetic abrasive finishing process with renewable abrasive particles to finish the surface of the polychlorotrifluoroethylene resin plate. Magnetic Abrasive Finishing (MAF) process is a technology that uses flexible magnetic brushes to improve the surface quality of materials. The performance of the magnetic brush is a key factor in surface finishing. In conventional MAF finishing, the number of abrasive particles in the magnetic brush is limited, and the position of the abrasive particles is relatively fixed, which will cause the cutting edge of the abrasive particles to gradually become dull and the finishing efficiency gradually decreases. This paper research the characteristics of the MAF process with renewable abrasive particles. This MAF process has a circulating system that uses a conveyor belt to renew abrasive particles. We use the polychlorotrifluoroethylene resin plate as the experimental processing object to conducted finishing experiment. And the surface roughness of the polychlorotrifluoroethylene resin plate is improved from 315 nm to 32 nm through this process.

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 paper proposed a viewpoint to explain why vibration assistance may increase material removal rate (MRR) in vibration-assisted magnetic abrasive finishing process. A series of experiments on vibration-assisted finishing have been carried out. On the basis of these experiments, the finishing characteristics are represented summarily. It was shown that the increase in material rate is mainly due to an increase in material removal per unit working distance.
