Abrasive Flow Machining

1989
Abstract Abrasive flow machining (AFM) finishes surfaces and edges by extruding viscous abrasive media through or across the workpiece. This article commences with a schematic illustration of the AFM process that uses two opposed cylinders to extrude semisolid abrasive media back and forth through the passages formed by the workpiece and

Wear of abrasive media and its effect on abrasive flow machining results

Wear, 2015
Abstract Abrasive media were examined before and after application in abrasive flow machining to evaluate the wear of media due to the machining process. Both media were tested on workpieces under the same working conditions to study the effect of abrasive media wear on the results of the machining process.

Soft Abrasive Flow Machining

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012
Soft Abrasive Flow Machining (SAFM) was presented as a new finishing process about the existing problems that the irregular surface of plastic mould was polishing difficultly. The paper first introduced the working principle and feature of SAMF. Secondly, the main influences of SAFM were analyzed.

Advances in Abrasive Flow Finishing

2020
Abrasive flow finishing (AFF) is a non-traditional advanced fine finishing process using an abrasive-laden viscoelastic polymer for finishing, polishing, deburring, radiusing of the component having a complex geometrical shape with inaccessible areas and difficult to machine materials.

A review on magnetically assisted abrasive flow machining and abrasive material type

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part E: Journal of Process Mechanical Engineering, 2022
The development of fine surface finish with no defects is still a significant challenge for the present industry and the finishing operation in the manufacturing of the precision components is the major problem. It is difficult rather impossible to polish/finish the difficult-to-reach surfaces, internal surfaces, and complex geometries by existing ...

Developments in abrasive flow machining: a review on experimental investigations using abrasive flow machining variants and media

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture, 2012
The abrasive flow machining (AFM) technique uses a self-deforming tool, an abrasive laden media that is passed back and forth in the passage geometry of the hollow workpiece with the assistance of two hydraulically operated cylinders placed opposite to each other.

Rheological characterisation of abrasive media and finishing behaviours in abrasive flow machining

International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, 2020
Flow field simulation of abrasive media in a constrained passage in abrasive flow machining (AFM) plays a decisive role in optimising process parameters and designing the core of a fixture. Based on the experimental rheological characterisation of various types of abrasive media, a model of flow field simulation of abrasive media was constructed by ...

Effect of Abrasive Flow Rate in Milling with Abrasive Water Jet

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2011
This Abrasive Water Jet Machining (AWJM) process is usually used to cut the materials which are difficult to cut by conventional machining processes. In this work, controlled depth milling (CDM) is done using AWJM. This work primarily focuses on controlling the abrasive flow rate to reduce the time for machining the component.

Study on the Characteristics of New Abrasive Medium for Abrasive Flow Machining

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
Abrasive medium plays an important role in the application of abrasive flow machining (AFM), a process that finishes complex internal and external geometries. A new abrasive medium needs to be fabricated due to a lack of literature on it. In this work, a new abrasive medium was fabricated by using styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) as carrier and DF-101S ...
