Abstract

Burnishing, a plastic deformation process, is becoming more popular in satisfying the increasing demands of machine component performance and reliability. Thus, investigating the burnishing parameters in order to improve the product quality is especially crucial. The objective of this research is to evaluate the effect of different burnishing conditions on surface microhardness, surface roughness, and form accuracy. Orthogonal central composite experiment design was used to select the input parameters making them into the right order. Optimum burnishing parameters were established to minimize roughness and/or maximize surface hardening. Emperical formulas were developed to predict the surface microhardness and roughness of leaded brass obtained by burnishing under lubricated conditions.
