Abstract

Burnishing is essentially a cold-working process used to improve properties of the machined surfaces. In present work, an attempt is made to investigate the effect of fine silicon carbide abrasive particles (in the form of a paste) in between roller burnishing tool and cylindrical components of EN24 steel. The mathematical models were developed using 2 4 full factorial design of experiments (DoE) for micro hardness in terms of four variables namely burnishing force, burnishing speed, feed and a number of passes for dry burnishing case and ‘with-paste’ (where burnishing is done using paste) burnishing case. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is carried out to check the adequacy of the derived models. The results showed that micro hardness of the untreated EN24 steel can be improved by 11% and 18% for dry burnishing case and ‘with-paste’ burnishing case respectively compared to turned components.
