Abstract

The development of modern mechanical engineering forces us to constantly improve the technology of processing materials and look for ways not only to improve the quality of products but also to increase the efficiency of the processing process itself. This article discusses an alternative method to finish the product, which can replace the traditional method of grinding, magnetic abrasive treatment. This is a modern solution that allows you to obtain high surface quality of the processed product with minimal defects in their surface layer, and reduce the number of technological operations, which has a beneficial effect on the efficiency of the processing process. The efficiency of the magnetic abrasive machining process, which was determined by the amount of specific removal of the material, is influenced by many parameters, some of which were studied in this article: electromagnetic induction and processing time. The success of the application of magnetic abrasive treatment can also be judged by the topography of the surface of the product made using an electron microscope. The data obtained in the course of the study demonstrated the importance of individual input parameters of the magnetic abrasive treatment process in the formation of the surface layer of the product. According to the results of experimental studies, the dependences of the varied parameters were determined and recommendations were formed to improve the efficiency of the use of the magnetic abrasive process.
