Abstract
ABSTRACTDevelopment in manufacturing technology enhances the mechanical behavior of machined parts and improves the surface finish with high precision, which conveys the progressive importance of magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) process. In current research work, magnetic abrasive particles were used as finishing tools during the MAF process. However, these magnetic abrasives are fabricated by special techniques, i.e., the adhesive bonding-based method, the sintering method, the plasma-based method and so on. The present study explores the basic finishing characteristics of the magnetic abrasive produced by the sintering process. After the sintering process, improved quality of magnetic abrasives was obtained, where the abrasive particle sticks on the base metal matrix. The abrasive particle used is alumina powder and the magnetic particle is iron powder. Experiments were performed on Stainless Steel 202 to inspect the sound effects of several process parameters such as rotational speed, electromagnet voltage, machining gap and abrasive particle size on machining performance. Apart from that, surface roughness was also measured, which revealed the influence of the abrasive particle on the machined surface in terms of surface finish. It is observed from this study that appropriate size of magnetic abrasive particle optimizes the surface finish.
