Abstract

In order to achieve the finishing of complex microsurface, the magnetic abrasive finishing process using alternating magnetic field was proposed. In this paper, the mechanism of the magnetic abrasive finishing process using alternating magnetic field was investigated. At the same time, the influence of magnetic particle size and magnetic field frequency on magnetic cluster changes was observed and the relationship between finishing force and alternating magnetic field was analyzed. In addition, the feasibility of ultraprecision finishing of 5052 aluminum alloy plate through this process was studied, and the influence of relevant process parameters on the finishing characteristics was analyzed. The experimental results show that the surface roughness of 5052 aluminum alloy plate improved from 318 to 3 nm Ra in 15 min.
