  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Advances in Engineering Materials (FLAME 2022)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering ((LNME))

Abstract

Advanced processing methods such as abrasive jet machining can perform various processing such as deburring, polishing, and cutting, and can process even minute dimensions effectively and efficiently. This research paper provides a comprehensive overview of the work done in this area and highlights the complex analysis that has been done to date. This paper provides an overview of the latest technology used in this machining and also discusses the issues related to machining. The review also highlights different materials and methods used under different conditions. Various optimization techniques to improve material removal rate (MRR) and improve kerf width and surface finish are also discussed. This review paper may represent current research challenges and also foresee the development of scopes in this area of advance machining.
