This study deals with a surface modification phenomenon in a cylindrical surface finishing process using diamond burnishing tools. The burnishing process is a micro-plastic machining method, in which a spherical diamond point tool compresses the metal surface to obtain a mirrorlike surface roughness; it could improve surface layer hardness similarly to the shot-peening process. In this report, we try to evaluate the surface modification in the burnishing process using the nanoindentation technique and an X-ray residual stress measuring instrument owing to the extremely thin surface layer. From the experimental result, the hardness of the surface layer is improved (by at least 100 HV) and a significant residual stress (-700MPa) remains on the surface layer of the burnished workpiece.
