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 influence of constant pressure acting on the magnetic particles brush for the precision machining of planar and curved workpieces. In particular, it examined the effects of constant pressure on improving the formal accuracy of the workpiece. This process method, constant pressure is applied to the magnetic pole of a conventional magnetic brush, the constant pressure acted to the surface of the workpiece through the magnetic particle brush formed at the magnetic pole surface. The authors conducted a plane magnetic abrasive finishing experiment using both the conventional magnetic abrasive finishing process and the newly proposed constant-pressure magnetic abrasive finishing process to compare the deburring characteristics between the processes for removing burrs from holes drilled in brass plate workpieces. In this experiment, a brass disk with a drilled hole was used as a workpiece. As a result, the difference in finishing characteristics was clarified. The results showed that the burr can be removed by use of this new plane magnetic abrasive finishing process and it is more useful than the conventional magnetic brush for improving the shape accuracy of the workpiece.

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 the Magnetic Abrasive Finishing (MAF) was utilized after Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) process as a combined finishing process. Firstly, the Single Point Incremental forming was form the truncated cone made from low carbon steel (1008-AISI) based on Z-level tool path then the magnetic abrasive finishing process was applied on the surface of the formed product. Box-Behnken design of experiment in Minitab 17 software was used in this study. The influences of different parameters (feed rate, machining step size, coil current and spindle speed) on change in Micro-Vickers hardness were studied. The maximum and minimum change in Micro-Vickers hardness that achieved from all the experiments were (40.4 and 1.1) respectively. The contribution percent of (feed rate, machining step size, coil current and spindle speed) were (7.1, 18.068, 17.376 and 37.894) % respectively. After MAF process all the micro surface cracks that generated on the workpiece surface was completely removed from the surface.

High quality, highly efficient finishing processes are required for finishing difficult-to-machine materials. Magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) process is a finishing method that can obtain a high accuracy surface using fine magnetic particles and abrasive particles, but has poor finishing efficiency. On the contrary, fixed abrasive polishing (FAP) is a polishing process can obtain high material removal efficiency but often cannot provide a high-quality surface at the nano-scale. Therefore, this work proposes a new finishing process, which combines the magnetic abrasive finishing process and the fixed abrasive polishing process (MAF-FAP). To verify the proposed methodology, a finishing device was developed and finishing experiments on alumina ceramic plates were performed. Furthermore, the mechanism of the MAF-FAP process was investigated. In addition, the influence of process parameters on finishing characteristics is discussed. According to the experimental results, this process can achieve high-efficiency finishing of brittle hard materials (alumina ceramics) and can obtain nano-scale surfaces. The surface roughness of the alumina ceramic plate is improved from 202.11 nm Ra to 3.67 nm Ra within 30 min.

In order to enhance grinding efficiency of the magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) method, we usually use the sinter method or the cementation method to mix the magnetic particles and abrasive particles together. However, the cost is high, and the variety is incomplete. Therefore, with the ferromagnetism to iron particles, the alumina particles and the lipin three kind of material simple mixture participate in the magnetic abrasive finishing which directly polishes, already obtained the good effect through the experiment. This paper analyses and explains the characteristic of the friction coefficient and the friction force on magnetic abrasive finishing according as account and experiment data.
