37.1 Introduction

Surface Profiles

FIGURE 37-1

Machining processes produce surface flaws, waviness, and roughness that can influence the performance of the component.

Surface Damage as a Function of Rake

Angle

FIGURE 37-8 The depth of damage to the surface of a machined part increases with decreasing rake angle of the cutting tool.

Fatigue Strength as a Function of Finish

EDM. (Field and

Kahles, 1971).

Shot Peening

37.2 Abrasive Cleaning and Finishing

Finishing Barrel

FIGURE 37-12 Schematic of the blow of material in tumbling or barrel finishing. The parts and media mass typically account for

50 to 60% of capacity.

Synthetic Media Geometry

FIGURE 37-13

Synthetic abrasive media are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes.

Through proper selection, the media can be tailored to the product being cleaned

Vibration Finishing Tub

FIGURE 37-14

Schematic diagram of a vibratory-finishing tub loaded with parts and media. The single eccentric shaft drive provides maximum motion at the bottom, which decreases as one moves upward.

The dualshaft design produces more uniform motion of the tub and reduces processing time

Media to Part Ratio
