Honing

Honing is a low abrading process which uses bonded abrasive sticks for removing stock from metallic and non-metallic surfaces. The advantages of honing are Correction of geometrical accuracy Out of roundness Taper Axial distortion

Lapping

The process is employed to get

Extreme accuracy of dimension

w .k
Super finishing generally used for integrity

Correction of minor imperfection of shape Refinement of the surface finish

Close fit between mating surfaces

Super finishing is another abrasive process which utilizes either a bonded abrasive like honing for cylindrical surfaces or a cup wheel for flat surfaces. It is

Removing surface fragmentation Reducing surface stresses and burns and thus restoring surface

Correcting inequalities in geometry 13

Lapping is generally the final finishing operation done with loose abrasive grains.

Polishing and Buffing Polishing is done with a very fine abrasive in loose form smeared on the polishing wheel with the work rubbing against the flexible wheel. A very small amount of material is removed in polishing. In buffing the abrasive grains in a suitable carrying medium such as grease are applied at suitable intervals to the

high luster is generated on the buffed surface. The dimensional accuracy of the parts is not affected by polishing and buffing operations.

In this process a continuous moving belt with an abrasive is used for grinding the

being driven while the other remains idle. The workpiece is oscillated across the face of the abrasive belt to obtain a uniform belt wear and surface finish. Sawing machines

Broaching Broaching is a multiple tooth cutting operation with the tool reciprocating similar to the sawing operations. The similarities end there, since in broaching the machining operation is completed in a single stroke as the teeth on the cutting tool called broach, are at a gradually increasing height corresponding to the feed per tooth of a milling cutter.

Preparing the part programs for CNC machine tools manually is a viable system for any kind of job. But the assistance of a computer is desirable for part

respect is the complexity of the work piece which makes manufal part programming a very difficult exercise. Close tolerance contouring to some
