Abstract

Recent advances in machining technology have led to the creation of non-axisymmetric curved-surface turning (NACS Turning). This process can produce non-axisymmetric components more efficiently than traditional CNC grinding processes. However, NACS-Turning leaves undesired periodic cutting marks on the workpiece surface. This study describes the combination of magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) and NACS Turning and demonstrates the feasibility of MAF to remove the described cutting marks. The MAF process was applied by adding a specialized MAF tool post to a NACS-Turning machine performing turning of hardened steel components. The result is a single setup capable of both turning and finishing.
