in this study; utilizing the elastic matrix ball has higher processing efficiency and better superficial quality than traditionalgrinding. the diversity of elastic abrasive tool characteristics contact with bend surface results in irregular wear abrasion，and abrasive tool machining status gets complicated. there is no theoretical interpretation of parameters affecting the grinding accuracy. bec...

In the process of form control using bonnet polishing an influence function is of vital importance for establishing material removal rates. However, the effects of polishing cloth, workpiece hardness and polishing parameters (such as precess angle, head speed, tool pressure and tool offset) on influence function when polishing CoCr alloys are not yet established and these factors affect the det...

For time and cost saving reasons, the lowest surface roughness possible is sought in milling operations. High speed milling is recommended in order to minimise the amount of material to be removed in subsequent finishing operations, e.g. grinding, electrical discharge machining or manual polishing. Several roughness parameters are usually employed for the characterization of polished surfaces. ...

Through a systematic experimental investigation into the polishing of polycrystalline diamond composites by the dynamic friction technique, this paper identified three major regimes of polishing conditions: the regime capable of a low material removal, that enabling a safe, high removal processing, and that of an unsafe but ultra-high material removal. The study concluded that a higher polishin...

This paper applied the Taguchi approach to investigate the effects of polishing parameters to obtain the optimal processing conditions for CoCr alloy polishing using a multiaxis CNC controlled corrective polishing machine. The polishing medium used was 1m diamond paste with a Microcloth(polishing cloth). Surface finish parameter Sa was chosen as the criterion for process optimization. The exper...

The optical polishing of hydrophilic polymer materials is a complex process that requires a comprehensive setting of various operating parameters. Based on a series of experimental investigations and dimensional analysis, this paper presents a simple empirical equation to evaluate material removal in the polishing of optical spherical surfaces of hydrophilic polymer materials. It is shown that ...

Increasing demand on mass production of high precision parts, has pushed the precision manufacturing industry to develop relatively low cost, reliable precision finishing processes to meet market requirements. A gap within the provision of low cost polishing processes has been identified; namely parts with a radius of curvature less than 10mm will be increasingly present in new mass produced pr...

Polishing technology is a final surface finishing process. The main aim is the removal of the machining marks to make the surface bright and clean. Polishing is often difficult to realize automatic mechanical polishing due to the polishing quality requirements and workpiece shape. Aiming at the problem, an automatic polishing technology has been proposed. In the paper, a new polishing path dete...

To investigate the material removal characteristic of paste polishing, experimental investigations based on Taguchi method have been carried out. In the experiments, the dwell time was fixed 300 seconds and the bonnet position was 4. The four variable factors (precess angles, head speed, head pressure and tool offset) with 3 levels were chosen to design the orthogonal array. With the designed o...
