Ball burnishing is a technological finishing process based on plastic deformation of the objective surface by means of a hard ball gliding over it. Along with its easiness of application, possible on the same machine where machining was performed [1], burnishing is a comprehensive process able to achieve surface roughness improvements, and compressive residual stresses up to deep layers of the ...

Surface finish and surface hardness of the components play vital role in quality of products/components, in general and failure resistance, in particular. One of the finishing process that involve surface plastic deformation and introduces compressive residual stresses and thereby improve fatigue resistance is “Burnishing”. Even though the burnishing process is widely employed, its process para...

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 ...

Burnishing is cold working process where hard roller are being pressed against irregular surface, so that surface finish and the micro hardness increases. In this study internal roller burnishing tool is used to burnish the drilled hole. Speed, feed, and number of passes have been varied using taguchi method to examine the surface finish and microhardness. Anova analysis is carried out. Surface...

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...

surface roughness of engineering parts is very significant property that effectively influences on the wear and fatigue strength. there are many methods for improving surface quality of engineering parts such as grinding, lapping and honing. one of the methods for improving surface quality is roller burnishing. roller burnishing improves surface quality of engineering parts by means of cold wor...

Burnishing is a chip-less finishing process, in which a hard roller or ball presses the surface layer of part to perform plastic deformation in the surface layer and produce improved finish, enhanced hardness and compressive residual stresses on the surface of special materials such as Aluminum and Brass. In the following research, the effect of input parameters such as feed rate, cutting speed...

Denomination Magnetism Aided Machining (MAM) comprises a number of relatively new industrial machining (firstly finishing and surface improving) processes being developed at the present time too. MAM is effective – among others – in polishing, deburring and burnishing of metal parts. The authors give a brief outline of these modern processes, and make an attempt to systematize them. The paper s...
