Study on electrolytic-abrasive mirror finishing of cylinder workpiece with high shape accuracy.

The electrolytic-abrasive mirror finishing method has been studied for a cylinder workpiece. However it is not sufficient for a mirror surface with a high shape accuracy and supremely small undulation. In order to finish uniformly for the reference surface, the loci of moving abrasives should be completely uniform or the abrased groove should have an appropriate crossing angles. Furthermore, the toolelectrode should have the flexibility then the toolelectrode is able to be used workpiece with various diameter. In this paper, new method and experimental results for a cylinder workpiece has studied, stressing improved shape accuracy by a control of abrasion motion.
