Abstract

Magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) is an effective surface finishing method. At present, most of the research on plane MAF focuses on finishing characteristics. However, due to the “edge effect” of the magnetic field and the rotational movement of the magnetic brush, the uniformity and flatness of the finished surface are poor. In order to further improve the accuracy of the finished surface, the surface uniformity and flatness are improved by changing the shape of the magnetic pole and the trajectory of the magnetic brush. At the same time, the surface flatness is evaluated not only by the maximum height difference of the cross section but also by the standard deviation to evaluate the surface uniformity and flatness. Through magnetic field simulation and experiments, it is proved that the bottom groove of the magnetic pole helps to make the magnetic particle distribution more uniform in the processing area, which can effectively improve the surface quality. In addition, through experiments, changing the trajectory of the magnetic brush can also effectively improve the surface flatness of the finished surface.
