Burnishing is a method of finishing and hardening machined parts by plastic deformation of the surface. Experimental work based on central composite second order rotatable design has been carried out on a lathe machine to establish the effects of ball burnishing parameters on the surface roughness of brass material. Analysis of the results by the analysis of variance technique and the F-test sh...

Ball burnishing has proved to be a highly effective mechanical finishing process of industrial workpieces, because of the excellent surface roughness and fatigue performance that induces in treated workpieces. In order to obtain specific target results from this complex plastic deformation process, its parameters must be accurately controlled. This paper focuses on the influence of the lateral ...

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the burnishing effect of saline application on dentin specimens (NaCl 0.9%). Seventy-two dentin specimens (60 experimental and 12 controls) were equally divided into two groups. In Group A; sub-groups I, II, III, IV and V were respectively soaked with saline for 5 s, 10 s, 30 s, 1 min and 2 min. Group VI was soaked in citric acid for 3 min and ...

Improving the surface quality after burnishing operation has been subject of various published investigations. Unfortunately, trade-off analysis between energy consumption and characteristics internal not addressed due to expensive cost huge efforts required. The objective present work is optimize factors, including spindle speed, feed, depth penetration, number rollers for minimizing consumed ...

This study investigated the seal created by cold burnishing the gutta-percha exposed after apical root resection of endodontically treated teeth. Sixty single-rooted extracted human teeth with a single straight canal were divided into four experimental groups of 15 teeth each. In two of the experimental groups the canals were instrumented and obturated well with laterally condensed gutta-percha...
