5. The Need for Advanced Machining Processes
Traditional machining processes
• Material removal by mechanical means, such as chip
forming, abrasion, or micro-chipping
The following cannot be done by Traditional
(Conventional) processes:
• Workpiece strength and hardness very high, >400HB
• Workpiece material too brittle, glass, ceramics, heat-
treated alloys
• Workpiece too slender and flexible, hard to clamp
• Part shape complex, long and small hole
• Special surface and dimensional tolerance
requirements
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
6. Skin panel for missiles and aircraft
Turbine blades, nozzles, sheet metal, small-
diameter deep holes, dies, thick metallic and
nonmetallic parts
Advanced machining processes
• Utilize chemical, electrical, and high-energy
beams
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
7. Classification of Non-Traditional Machining
These can be classified according to the source of energy used to
generate such a machining action: mechanical, thermal, chemical
and electrochemical.
Mechanical: Erosion of the work material by a high velocity
stream of abrasives or fluids (or both)
Thermal (Thermoelectric): The thermal energy is applied to a
very small portion of the work surface, causing that portion to be
removed by fusion and/or vaporization of the material. The thermal
energy is generated by conversion from electrical energy.
Electrochemical: Mechanism is reverse of electroplating.
Chemical: Most materials (metals particularly) are susceptible to
chemical attack by certain acids or other etchants. In chemical machining,
chemicals selectively remove material from portions of the workpart, while
other portions of the surface are protected by a mask.

10. AJM --- Working Process
• A stream of fine grain abrasives mixed with air or
suitable carrier gas, at high pressure, is directed by
means of a nozzle on the work surface to be machined.
• The material removal is due to erosive action of a high
pressure jet. .
• The process is more suitable when the work material is
brittle and fragile.
• Abrasive particle impinges on the work surface at a
high velocity and this impact causes a tiny brittle fracture
and the following air or gas carries away the dislodged
small work piece particle.

15. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
AJM --- Advantages
âś“ Low capital cost.
âś“ Less vibration.
âś“ Good for difficult to reach area.
âś“ No heat is genera6ted in work piece.
âś“ Ability to cut intricate holes of any hardness and
brittleness in the material.
âś“ Ability to cut fragile, brittle hard and heat sensitive
material without damage.
16. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
AJM --- Disadvantages
â–Ş Low metal removal rate.
â–Ş Due to stay cutting accuracy is affected.
â–Ş Parivles is imbedding in work piece.
â–Ş Abrasive powder cannot be reused.
17. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
AJM --- Applications
➢ For abrading and frosting glass, it is more economical
than acid etching and grinding.
➢ For doing hard suffuses safe removal of smears and
ceramics oxides on metals.
➢ Resistive coating etc from ports to delicate to
withstand normal scrapping.
➢ Delicate cleaning such as removal of smudges from
antique documents.
➢ Machining semiconductors such as germanium etc.
18. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
AJM --- Operating Parameters
â–Ş Medium
– Dry air, CO2, N2
– Quantity: 30 liter/min
– Velocity: 150-300 m/min
– Pressure: 200-1300 KPa
• Nozzle
– Material: Tungsten carbide or saffire
– Stand of distance: 2.54-75 mm
– Diameter: 0.13-1.2 mm
– Operating Angle: 60° to vertical
19. AJM --Process Parameters
The process characteristics can be evaluated by judging
(1) the MRR,
(2) the geometry of the cut,
(3) the roughness of the surface produced, and
(4) the rate of nozzle wear
The major parameters which control these quantities are:
1. The abrasive (composition, strength, size and mass flow rate)
2. The gas (composition, pressure and velocity).
3. The nozzle (geometry, material, distance from and inclination to the
work surface).
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
20. AJM --Process Parameters
➢Mainly two types of abrasives are used (1) Aluminum oxide
and (2) Silicon carbide. (Grains with a diameter 10-50 microns
are readily available)
➢ For good wear action on the surfaces, the abrasive grains
should have sharp edges.
➢ A reuse of the abrasive powder is normally not
recommended because of a decrease of cutting capacity and
clogging of the nozzle orifices due to contamination.
➢ The mass flow rate of the abrasive particles depends on
the pressure and the flow rate of the gas.
➢ There is an optimum mixing ratio (mass fraction of the
abrasive in the jet) for which the metal removal rate is the
highest.
➢ When the mass flow rate of the abrasive increases the
material removal rate also increases.
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
21. AJM --Process Parameters
➢The AJM unit normally operates at a pressure of 0.2-1.0
N/mm2 .
➢The composition of gas and a high velocity has a significant
impact on the MRR even if the mixing ratio is not changed.
➢The nozzle is one of the most vital elements controlling the
process characteristics.
➢The nozzle material should be hard to avoid any significant
wear due to the flowing abrasive. [Normally WC (avg. life: 12-
30 hrs.) or Sapphire (Appr. = 300 hrs.) are used]
➢For a normal operation the cross-sectional area of the
orifice can be either circular or rectangular and between 0.05-
0.2 mm2 .
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
22. AJM --Process Parameters
➢The nozzle tip distance (NTD) or the stand off distance
is a critical parameter in AJM.
➢ The NTD not only affects the MRR from the work
surface but also the shape and size of the cavity
produced.
➢ As shown in the figure below, when the NTD increases,
the velocity of the abrasive particles impinging on the
work surface increases due to their acceleration after they
leave the nozzle. This increases the MRR.
➢ With a further increase in the NTD, the velocity reduces
due to the drag of the atmosphere which initially checks
the increase in MRR and then decreases it.
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
23. AJM --Process Parameters
➢The gas propulsion system supplies clean and dry gas
(air, nitrogen, or CO 2) to propel the abrasive particles.
➢ The gas may be supplied either by a cylinder or a
compressor.
➢ In case of a compressor a filter or a dryer may be
used to avoid water or oil contamination to the abrasive
powder.
➢The gas should be non toxic, cheap and easily
available and should not excessively spread when
discharged from nozzle into atmosphere.
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
25. USM --- Process
â–Ş The basic USM process involves a tool made of a ductile
and tough material.
â–Ş Vibrating with a low amplitude and very high frequency
around 20 kHz (Ultra sonic) and a continuous flow of an
abrasive slurry in the small gap between the tool and the
work piece.
â–Ş Ultra-sonic are generated by feeding high frequency
electrical current to a transducer which converts it to high
frequency mechanical vibrations.
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
26. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
USM --- Process
â–Ş The tool is pressed against the work piece with a load of few
kilograms and fed downwards continuously as the cavity is
cut in the work piece.
â–Ş The vibrations thus, produced are focused to the cutting
point by means of horn or a tuned vibration concentrator.
â–Ş The impact of the hard abrasive grains fractures the hard
and brittle work surface, resulting in the removal of the work
material in the form of small wear particles.
â–ŞThe tool is shaped as the approximate mirror image of the
configuration of the cavity desired in the work.
28. Mechanics of USM
The reasons for material removal in an USM process are
believed to be:
1. The hammering of the abrasive particles on the work
surface by the tool.
2. The impact of free abrasive particles on the work
surface.
3. The erosion due to cavitation.
4. The chemical action associated with the fluid used.

31. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
USM --- Advantages
âś“ It can be used machine hard, brittle, fragile and non
conductive material.
âś“ No heat is generated in work, therefore no significant
changes in physical structure of work material.
âś“ Non-metal (having poor electrical conductivity) can very
well be machined by USM.
âś“It is burr less and distortion less processes hence can be
adopted with EDM, ECG, and ECM for better production.
32. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
USM --- Disadvantages
â–Ş It is difficult to drill deep holes, as slurry movement is
restricted.
â–Ş Tool wear rate is high due to abrasive particles.
â–Ş USM can be used only when the hardness of work is
more than 45 HRC.
â–Ş USM has very Low Metal Removal Rate.
33. J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
USM --- Applications
➢Machining of cavities in electrically nonconductive
ceramics.
➢Used for multistep processing for fabricating silicon
nitride (Si3N4) turbine blades.
➢Used for machining hard, brittle metallic alloys,
semiconductors, glass, ceramics, carbides etc.
➢Used for machining round, square, irregular shaped holes
and surface impressions.
➢Used in machining of dies for wire drawing, punching and
blanking operations
34. USM -- Abrasive Slurry
âť– The most common abrasives are Boron Carbide (B4C),
Silicon Carbide (SiC), Corrundum (Al2O3), Diamond and
Boron silicarbide.
âť– Diamond dust is used only for cutting daimond and
rubies.
âť– Water is the most commonly used fluid although other
liquids such as benzene, glycerol and oils are also used.
Summary
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
35. USM -- Process Parameters
The important parameters which affect the process are the:
1. Frequency: With an increase in frequency of the tool head
the MRR increases. The frequency used is 15-30 kHz
2. Amplitude: When the amplitude of the vibration increases
the MRR is expected to increases. The amplitude of
vibration is kept as 25-100 µm
3. Feed force: We already said that with an increase in Feed
Force, the MRR tends to increase. But at higher values
MRR decreases due to grain crushing
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
36. USM -- Process Parameters
4. Hardness ratio of the tool and the work-piece, affects the
MRR. Apart from hardness the brittleness of the work
material also affects the MRR.
5. Grain size: With increase in mean grain diameter the
crushing hence MRR increases. Generally the grit size of
100-800 of abrasive is used
6. Concentration: Concentration of the abrasives directly
controls the number of grains producing impact per cycle.
MRR is proportional to C1/4 so after C rises to 30% MRR
increase is not very fast.
J. Hemwani, GPC Betul.
37. USM -- Process Parameters
7. Viscosity: With increase in viscosity of the slurry the
MRR decreases.
8. Surface finish: The surface finish generally decrease
with increase in grain size.
9. Concentration: Concentration of the abrasives directly
controls the number of grains producing impact per
cycle. MRR is proportional to C1/4 so after C rises to
30% MRR increase is not very fast.
