Abstract
Barrel finishing of titanium castings using the centrifugal barrel machine was performed and polishing efficiency and surface texture were examined.Centrifugal barrel finishing was found to be very efficient for polishing and finishing titanium castings in a short time.Barrel finishing with media for coarse finish resulted in a large amount of polishing but also caused wear of the edge of the specimen.Barrel finishing with media for medium and final finishing after the medium finishing, performed using convention rotation grinding wheels, was found to be useful for dental use to obtain a good surface texture while maintaining dimensional fitness.
