The influence of materials swelling across the steps on surface roughness under up-cutting and down-cutting direction in ultra-precision raster milling was investigated. The normalized extent of swelling is characterized by a swelling significance index, defined based on the power spectral density of the roughness profile. Materials swelling was found to be significant in ultra-precision raster milling, especially when copper alloys machined in the up-cutting direction. The findings in the present study provide an important means for improving the surface finish of the raster-milled surfaces and optimizing the cutting conditions.

The formation of WEDM surface is a complicated process. There are many factors which make machined surface topography have the characteristics of complex and irregular, and impact using performance of parts. The work investigated microscopic features of the WEDM surface topography based on power spectral density and fractal theory, and proposed power spectral density evaluation method of the WEDM surface. The fractal dimension of the WEDM surface was calculated by structure function method. The physical meaning of the fractal dimension of the WEDM surface was described. The result shows that topography of the WEDM surface exhibits strong fractal characteristics within a certain scale. The processing parameters and pulse power performance will affect the fractal dimension D. The fractal dimension D has a certain relationship with the surface roughness Ra. It is more reasonable to use the fractal dimension D as well as the surface roughness Ra together to evaluate WEDM surface quality.

An atomic force microscope (AFM) was used to image the ultra-precision machined surfaces of K9 glasses, potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals, and silicon wafers. Each surface was generated by two machining techniques: (1) coarse-grain-sized diamond wheel grinding and regular polishing were used on K9 glasses; (2) single-point diamond turning and deliquescent polishing were performed on KDP crystals; (3) standard chemical mechanical polishing and atmospheric pressure low temperature plasma polishing were employed on silicon wafers. One-dimensional and two-dimensional power spectral densities (PSDs) of each sample surface were calculated from the measurement data. The influence of each machining process on the sample surface texture was analyzed based on the PSDs. The experiment results indicate that the power spectral density is a great guidance for the selection and improvement of ultra-precision machining techniques.
