Abstract
When a few branched holes are made in order to cross a main hole at right angle, burrs are produced on the sidewall of the main hole at end of each branched hole. The principle of the process is as follows. After the specimen of which all holes are closed by using sealing tape is submerged, explosive set at the position a little apart from the entrance of the main hole is detonated. As soon as the generated underwater shock wave is arrived at the entrance of the main hole, the sealing tape is broken and the water stream with very high velocity flows into the main hole. The deburring is performed by the action of the water stream with very high velocity. The deburring is sufficiently succeeded in most case. When the main hole is closed, however, the deburring could not be succeeded at the branched hole very near closed position. In order to improve the insufficiency of the process, we designed new equipment in order that underwater shock wave may be concentrated at the entrance of main hole and the water stream with very high velocity, which is caused by the shock wave, may flow along sidewall on which burr is generated. In the present report, we propose the new method and give full account of the experimental results for deburring obtained by using the equipment.
