Surface texture, as one of the typical surface integrity characteristics, plays a vital part in efficiently and systematically evaluating the surface integrity and relevant mechanical properties of machined parts. Commonly used 2D surface roughness parameters are formularized and discussed in this paper. And 3D characterization technique is also illustrated through measuring and describing a machined surface with an optical profiling system. The relationship between surface texture and the fatigue property of final machined parts are discussed by employing the quantity of effective stress concentration factor which could be expressed by the standard surface roughness parameters and measured averaged root radius of surface texture’s valleys. This research emphasizes the indispensable role of the surface texture in evaluating surface integrity and corresponding functional performance of machined parts.

This work performed molecular dynamic simulations to study the 2D profile and 3D surface topography in the nanometric cutting process. The least square mean method was used to model the evaluation criteria for the surface roughness at the nanometric scale. The result showed that the cutting speed was the most important factor influencing the spacing between the peaks, the sharpness of the peaks, and the randomness of the profile. The plastic deformation degree of the machined surface at the nanometric scale was significantly influenced by the cutting speed and depth of cut. The 2D and 3D surface roughness parameters exhibited a similar variation tendency, and the parameters Ra and Rq tended to increase gradually with an increase in the cutting speed and a decrease in the depth of cut. Finally, it is concluded that at the nanometric scale, the 3D surface roughness parameters could more accurately reflect the real surface characteristics than the 2D parameters.

Frequently, on the drawings of mechanical parts, only indications concerning the surface roughness parameter Ra and, relatively rarely, the surface roughness parameter Rz are included. However, the study of the machined surface roughness highlights the necessity to use yet other surface roughness parameters, in order to have a clearer image on the state of the machined surface. Some other surface roughness parameters possible to be used and presenting importance, without the parameters Ra and Rz, were highlighted. One took into consideration the possibility of measuring parameters Rsk and Rmr by means of the available surface roughness testers. Experimental researches of turning by applying the method of full factorial experiment were developed. As input factors in turning process, the cutting speed, the feed rate and the tool nose radius were used. The experimental results were mathematically processed, being determined empirical mathematical models that highlight the influence of certain input factors of turning process on the values of some surface roughness parameters characterized by a more restricted use

Surface integrity has a great effect on the fatigue property of titanium alloy. The surface integrity and fatigue property of a high speed milled Ti-6.5Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V (TA15) titanium alloy were investigated in this research. The main objective of this paper is to study the influence of milling speed on the surface integraty and fatigue property of the machined part. The surface roughness, work hardening, metallurgical structure and residual stress of the machined surface were studied in a cutting speed range of from 50m/min to 300m/min. To verify the relationship between cutting speed and the surface integrity of machined surface, the fatigue property of titanium alloy specimens milled at four different cutting speeds ranging from 50 to 200m/min were compared at two stress levels. This research shows that the cutting speed has little effect on the work hardening, metallurgical structure and residual stress, but the surface roughness decreases with the increasing cutting speed. Therefore, increasing milling speed has a positive effect on the surface integrity and fatigue property of the machined surface.

In order to increase the cutting and breaking capacity of abrasive water jet machining (AWJM), abrasive particles are usually added to water. The AWJM technology is generally used for harder and heavier machinable materials like thick sheets, composite materials with metal and ceramic properties and others within these categories to just cite a few. The contribution is mainly focused on the analysis of the surface properties of the steel S235 after the cutting process, and this depending on the cutting speed of the water jet. Three different cutting speeds were used for the analysis because this cutting parameter significantly affects the resulting quality of the machined surface. A contact profile method was used to analyze surface roughness. The observed surface roughness parameters were the Ra, Rt and Rz respectively. The above-mentioned surface roughness parameters were measured in three positions, i.e.: at the inlet, middle and exit positions of the water jet with respect to the machined material.

Increased emphasis on productivity and machining quality is the cause of constantly looking for progressive chip machining technologies to meet this requirement. One of this option is the use of specific turning with an actively driven tool. This unconventional turning method makes it possible to select higher feed values while keep the required tool life. However, it is important to identify the properties and all possible applications of such an actively driven tool during the machining process. The paper focuses on the resulting state of the machined surface of the workpiece in terms of surface roughness parameters due to the feed values. For the sake of clarity, the knowledge and findings of active rotation machining are compared to self-propelled rotary turning.

This paper investigates the effect of change of the abrasive flow rate and the jet feed on the effectiveness of machining of AZ91D casting magnesium alloy. The evaluation of the state of the workpiece surface was based on surface and area roughness parameters (2D and 3D), which provided data on: irregularities formed on the workpiece edge surface (water jet exit), the surface quality after cutting, the workpiece surface chamfering, microhardness of the machined surface, and of specimen cross-sections (along the water jet impact). The process was tested for two parameter settings: abrasive flow rate 50 at cutting speed vf = 5–140 mm/min, and abrasive flow rate 100% (0.5 kg/min) at vf = 5–180 mm/min. The results demonstrate a significant effect of the abrasive flow rate and the jet feed velocity on the quality of machined surface (surface roughness and irregularities). In addition, selected 2D surface roughness parameters were modelled using artificial neural networks (radial basis function and multi-layered perceptron). It has been shown that neural networks are a suitable tool for prediction of surface roughness parameters in abrasive water jet machining (AWJM).

New technology has been developed to permit repair work on one of the main and most important components of shipboard diesel engines—the crankshaft—without removing it from engine. It is no longer necessary to dismantle the whole engine and as such, this innovative technology significantly reduces repair costs. However, the impact of this novel grinding technology on the surface roughness parameters is not yet clear and requires additional scientific analysis. Machining technology and cutting regimes, as well as the material of the tool being used, all have a direct impact on the surface texture and consequently on the quality of the repair as a whole. Therefore, to realise this innovation, it is necessary to carry out additional research into the impact of grinding technology parameters on the surface formation of the crankshaft main and crankpin bearings (journals). Current roughness research is usually restricted to two-dimensional surface roughness parameters—simple profile analysis. Nevertheless, in practice any surface has three dimensions, which give it a characteristic texture. It is therefore also necessary to create a new theoretical 3-D surface model for crankshaft bearings surfaces. This will allow us to analyse the full-scale impact of technological grinding regimes on the actual three-dimensional surface. This study revealed that optimal 3-D surface roughness (texture) parameters for crankshafts depend upon: the mean arithmetical deviation of the surface, RaT, and two perpendicular surface spacing parameters between the peaks Sm1 and Sm2. Multifactorial research shows individual significance of each technological regime and overall impact on the 3-D parameter RaT, Sm1 and Sm2. The approach and methodology adopted for the experiments enabled us to identify the optimal and most appropriate grinding technology parameters.
