ISOTROPIC FINISHING
(also
called Vibratory Tumble Burnishing)
The
objective is to significantly increase reliability of power transfer systems by
increasing gear contact fatigue life, increasing gear tooth bending fatigue
life, decreasing the coefficient of friction, and extending the performance and
service life of the gear sets. Super finishing by the Government has
demonstrated a 3X mean life improvement due to
The
process involves two steps.
The
first, referred to as the refinement process involves a chemical interaction on
the surface of the part. A soft, thin (one micron) film is formed on the surface
of the part. The part interacts with a ceramic media in a special vibratory tub,
this film is physically removed from the "peaks" of the processed part
and the "valleys" are unaffected. The chemically induced film re-forms
only at the peaks that are interacting with the vibratory media, and the process
repeats itself. Over time, the peaks are removed, leaving only the valleys,
producing the improved micro finish.

The
second step is referred to as the burnish process. After the required micro
finish is achieved, a mild alkaline mixture is introduced. After a relatively
short period a polished, chrome-like finish is produced. In addition to the
polishing effects, this step effectively removes all traces of the film
formation from the refinement process.
