Abstract Nickel-based superalloys have a wide range of high-temperature applications such as turbine blades. The complex geometries of these applications and the specific properties of the materials raise difficulties in the surface finishing. Magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) has proven effective in finishing the complex geometries. In MAF, the magnetic properties of the workpiece, tool, and abrasive play important roles in controlling finishing characteristics. This paper presents the effects of nickel coating on the abrasive behavior during finishing and resulting finishing characteristics of Ni-based superalloys. The Ni-coated diamond abrasive is more attracted to the magnet than the Ni-based superalloy surface. As a result, fewer Ni-coated diamond abrasive particles, which are stuck between the magnetic-particle brush and the target surface, participate in surface finishing. Because of this, coupled with the reduced sharpness of abrasive cutting edges due to the coating, Ni-coated diamond abrasive cannot effectively smooth the target surface in MAF. However, the Ni coating is worn off during finishing of the hard, rough, additively manufactured surface. Then, the diamond abrasive participates in finishing as uncoated diamond abrasive and facilitates the material removal, finishing the target surface.

The Difference

The magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) process is an ultra-precision surface finishing process. In order to further improve the finishing efficiency and surface quality, the MAF process using an alternating magnetic field was proposed in the previous research, and it was proven that the alternating magnetic field has advantages compared with the static magnetic field. In order to further develop the process, this study investigated the effect on finishing characteristics when the alternating current waveform is a square wave. The difference between the fluctuation behavior of the magnetic cluster in two alternating magnetic fields (sine wave and square wave) is observed and analyzed. Through analysis, it can be concluded that the use of a square wave can make the magnetic cluster fluctuate faster, and as the size of the magnetic particles decreases, the difference between the magnetic cluster fluctuation speed of the two waveforms is greater. The experimental results show that the surface roughness of SUS304 stainless steel plate improves from 328 nm Ra to 14 nm Ra within 40 min.

This research studies the influence　of constant pressure acting on the magnetic particles brush for the precision machining of planar and curved workpieces. In particular, it examined the effects of constant pressure on improving the formal accuracy of the workpiece. This process method, constant pressure is applied to the magnetic pole of a conventional magnetic brush, the constant pressure acted to the surface of the workpiece through the magnetic particle brush formed at the magnetic pole surface. The authors conducted a plane magnetic abrasive finishing experiment using both the conventional magnetic abrasive finishing process and the newly proposed constant-pressure magnetic abrasive finishing process to compare the deburring characteristics between the processes for removing burrs from holes drilled in brass plate workpieces. In this experiment, a brass disk with a drilled hole was used as a workpiece. As a result, the difference in finishing characteristics was clarified. The results showed that the burr can be removed by use of this new plane magnetic abrasive finishing process and it is more useful than the conventional magnetic brush for improving the shape accuracy of the workpiece.

The present study focused on surface texture characteristics of magnetic material, Mild steel (MS) as well as nonmagnetic material, Aluminum 2024 (Al 2024) alloy with the application of a laboratory-developed magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) process. MAF is one of the unconventional finishing processes to attain a satisfactory finishing level up to nanoscale. In MAF, the surface finish is controlled by a flexible magnetic abrasive brush (FMAB) which has a combination of abrasives (Al2O3, SiC, etc.) and magnetic particles (iron powder). The experiments were planned using (L27) full factorial design, different levels of weight percentage of abrasives (20–30%), speed of the electromagnet (180–2100rpm), and electromagnet supply voltage (30–50 V) were varied to enhance the surface responses. The responses considered were % improvements of change in the surface finish (%ΔRa), change in average peak to valley height (%ΔRz), change in total profile height (%ΔRt), and change in mean square root surface finish (%ΔRq). Analysis of variances (ANOVA) was evaluated and discussed. It is observed that the speed of the electromagnet and voltage are the most influencing variable parameters that most impacted on the responses. Surface roughness was measured before and after the MAF processing of MS and Al 2024 using a Suftronic S-100 surface roughness tester. The obtained surface morphology was examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It was observed that MS has %ΔRa = 83, %ΔRz = 65, %ΔRt = 65.5 and %ΔRq = 72.6 while Al 2024 has %ΔRa = 65, %ΔRz =50, %ΔRt = 51 and %ΔRq = 55 with noticeable surface texture improvement compared to the initial surface roughness obtained using surface grinding process.

Magnetic Abrasive Finishing (MAF) is relatively a new finishing technique which employs the magnetic force for finishing. In this paper, the influence of the magnetic flux density on the finishing pressure and the finishing efficiency during finishing is analyzed. With the cylindrical magnetic finishing apparatus developed by the author, a series of experiments on finishing the cylindrical surfaces of nonferromagnetic materials and ferromagnetic materials are carried out. To solve the problems of low finishing efficiency and abrasive particles escaping easily because of lack of finishing pressure during finishing nonferromagnetic materials, a new method of increasing the finishing pressure by using the “pressure-increasing bag” in the finishing system is put forward. A lot of comparative experiments on finishing nonferromagnetic materials with the “pressure-increasing bag” and without the “pressure-increasing bag” are performed. Under the same experimental conditions, the amount of diameter-reduction d is increased from 1μm to 1.88μm and the surface roughness is improved from Ra0.315μm to Ra0.250μm by using the “pressure-increasing bag”. The results show that the finishing pressure is increased obviously and the MAF efficiency of finishing nonferromagnetic materials is improved dramatically by using the “pressure-increasing bag”.

The Magnetic Field

Magnetic Abrasive Finishing (MAF) is one of the non-conventional finishing processes, which produces a high level of surface quality and is primarily controlled by magnetic field. In MAF, workpiece is kept between the two poles (N and S) of a magnet. The working gap between the workpiece and the magnet is filled with magnetic abrasive particles. A magnetic abrasive flexible brush (MAFB) is formed, acting as a multipoint cutting tool, due to the effect of magnetic field in the working gap. This paper deals with theoretical investigations of the plane MAF process to know the effect of the process parameters on the surface quality produced. The magnetic field is simulated using finite element model of the process. The magnetic field is also measured experimentally to validate the theoretical results. A series of numerical experiments are performed using the finite element and surface roughness models of the process to study the effect of flux density, height of working gap, size of magnetic abrasive particles and slots (size and location) in the magnetic pole on the surface quality. Based on the results, it is concluded that surface roughness value (R max ) of the workpiece decreases with increase in flux density and size of magnetic abrasive particles. Surface roughness value (R max ) decreases with decrease in working gap. R max value also decreases when the magnet has a slot as compared to the magnet having no slot. Present study would help in understanding the effect of the various parameters on surface roughness value without doing a number of real-life experiments.
