This research aims to evaluate the effects of lateral ultrasonic vibration on abrasive flow machining to improve surface quality of 1.2080 steel.
Experimental investigation of lateral ultrasonic vibration-assisted abrasive flow machining on 1.2080 steel.
Utilized a design of experiment algorithm and ANOVA analysis to assess process parameters.
Optimal conditions included a vibration frequency of 31 kHz, flow rate of 1.5 L/min, polishing time of 30 minutes, and workpiece hardness of 60 HRC.
Best surface quality achieved with a vibration amplitude of 30 µm and tool-workpiece distance of 300 µm.
Key factors affecting roughness reduction were flow rate, polishing duration, and ultrasonic vibration frequency.
Identified optimal conditions for superior surface finish in abrasive flow machining.
