Burnishing Process

Burnishing is an effective chipless finishing process for improving workpiece properties: hardness, vibration resistance and surface quality. The application of this technology is limited to rotationally symmetrical structures of deformable metals. Because of the multiaxial characteristics, the transfer of this force controlled technology on to prismatic shapes requires a comprehensive process development. The main purpose of this paper is the characterization of a plain burnishing process on aluminium EN AW 2007 with a linear moved, spherical diamond tool. The method of design of experiments was used to investigate the influence of different machined surfaces in conjunction with process parameters: burnishing force, burnishing direction, path distance and burnishing speed. FEM simulation was utilized for strain and stress analysis. The experiments show, that unlike the process parameters the initial surface roughness as 3rd order shape deviation does not have a significant influence on the finished surface. Furthermore a completely new surface is created by the process, with properties independent from the initial surface roughness.

Local Deformations

In sheet metal processes the burrs cannot be completely eliminated during the process but can be minimized by optimization of the process parameters. Hence the deburring often becomes an essential secondary operation. Most of the deburring operations are hand-made and therefore several manufacturers tend to eliminate these tedious and labor-intensive operations due to time and cost issues. Moreover, clamping problems can arise which, together with the deburring forces, can induce dimension alterations and local deformations, particularly for thin sheets. Barrel finishing is an old technique commonly used to improve the surface roughness of complicated parts, but can find interesting applications also in the deburring. Aim of this work is to present an experimental investigation on the deburring of sheet metal performed by barreling. A technological model has been developed in order to assess the height of the burr as a function of the initial burr and of the working time.

Chemical Solutions

The vibratory finishing process is widely used for finishing metal components. An experimental investigation is reported on the factors affecting the metal removal and resultant surface roughness during vibratory finishing including the influence of chemical solutions. The effect of process parameters such as media size and impact frequency is studied by measuring the contact forces. A method to investigate the effect of chemical solution and to optimize the processing time to achieve desired resultant surface roughness is presented.

Lapping is a finishing process used especially for removing the material, achieving finer surfaces, correcting minor imperfections and maintaining close tolerances. This process may takes place due to the relative motion between the work material, slurry and lapping plate. This study is done by conducting a series of experiments based on taguchi design of experiments and calculating material removal rate and surface roughness. This study explains about effect of the parameters on material removal rate and surface finish. The final step of this process is to find out the optimum combination of process parameters to determine the material removal rate and the surface finish.

Finishing Process

Purpose Mass finishing is a commonly employed surface finishing process for improving surface characteristics of aerospace engineering components. Optimization of surface characteristics of such critical components require an explicit computational model that can describe the surface characteristics of the finished component. This paper aims to develop an explicit computational model that can describe the surface roughness as a function of various process parameters which influence the mass finishing process. Design/methodology/approach In the present work, the authors propose to study the roughness characteristics using a combined evolutionary computing approach based on Multi-Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS) and Genetic Programming (GP) techniques. Findings The authors conducted sensitivity and parametric analysis to capture the dynamics of surface characteristics by unveiling dominant input variables and hidden non-linear relationships. It is found that by regulating the process time and media size, a greatest variation in surface finish reduction can be achieved in mass finishing process. Originality/value To the best of authors knowledge, for the first time a hybrid evolutionary computational technique has been proposed in this work. The authors combined two powerful evolutionary techniques, namely Multi-variate Adaptive Regressive Splines and Genetic Programming approach. The proposed approach was able to capture the dynamics of surface roughness with higher accuracy as comparable to that of the experiments.
