Summary: | Previous work on vibratory finishing has led to a better understanding and establishment of the mass finishing processes. Despite the sustained efforts made to date, vibratory finishing remains a field where the findings made have been based largely on empirical evidence. Through force sensor analyses and scanning electron microscopy imaging, in this work a successful attempt has been made in uncovering the underlying science—through first principles of Newtonian physics—behind vibratory finishing, providing explanations for the observations made. Trials were carried out in a high-frequency vibratory bowl, the first of its kind in the vibratory finishing industry. Through these trials, mathematical formulations have been derived, essentially providing a reliable way for the industry to estimate the process cycle time. |
