Abstract

Drilling is one of the most important machining operations in manufacture process. When drilling process is applied, unexpected burrs will be formed on the surface of workpiece. Even a small burr can cause unwanted problems, resulting in low quality products. In order to get better drilled parts, it is very important to know characteristics of burr formation and to remove the burr from the drilled surface with machining process. In this study, magnetic abrasive polishing (MAP) was used to research the deburring factors of magnesium alloy. Moreover, design of experiments was performed to evaluate parameters’ effect on the MAP process. As a result, it was seen that the MAP was useful to remove the burrs on the workpiece without damage from its original surface.
