Fatigue Strength as a Function of Finish
FIGURE 35-1 Fatigue strengthof Inconel 718 components aftersurface finishing by grinding orEDM. (Field and Kahles, 1971).
Surface Profiles
FIGURE 35-2 Machining processes produce surface flaws, waviness, and roughness that can influence the performance of the component.
Machined Surfaces

Finishing Barrel
FIGURE 35-8 Schematic ofthe blow of material in tumblingor barrel finishing. The parts andmedia mass typically account for50 to 60% of capacity.
Synthetic Media Geometry
FIGURE 35-9 Syntheticabrasive media are available in awide variety of sizes and shapes.Through proper selection, themedia can be tailored to theproduct being cleaned
Vibration Finishing Tub
FIGURE 35-10 Schematic diagram of a vibratory-finishing tub loaded with parts andmedia. The single eccentric shaft drive provides maximum motion at the bottom, which decreasesas one moves upward. The dualshaft design produces moreuniform motion of the tub and reduces processing time

Shot Peening

Surface Damage as a Function of Rake Angle
FIGURE 35-22 The depthof damage to the surface of amachined part increases withdecreasing rake angle of thecutting tool.
Surface Stress

(Center) The residual stressesinduced by roller burnishing or shot peening. (Bottom) Netstress pattern obtained when loading a surface-treated beam.The reduced magnitude of the tensile stresses contributes toincreased fatigue life.
