How Ductility Impacts Surface Finish
Surface finish significantly affects the performance, durability, and quality of manufactured parts. A smoother finish reduces friction and wear, enhancing the part's longevity. Burnishing, a process that compresses the part's surface, is a common technique to improve surface finish. However, it's effectiveness relies on the material's ductility.
A Perfect Finish: How Time, Pressure, and Pre-Finish Impact Surface Finish
While there are many variables that can impact the surface finish of a part, the 3 key variables, time, pressure, and pre-finish, all play a critical role in the ultimate outcome of the part. Changing any one of these variables could result in dramatically different results, which is why it’s important to understand what they are and how they work together to achieve the desired surface finish.
Expanding X-ID Boiler Tubes
In order to increase efficiency and lower operating costs, many boiler makers are switching to X-ID enhanced tubing. While X-ID tubes are beneficial for the end user, they can be challenging to install.
Choosing the Right Roller Burnishing Tool
Roller burnishing is a quick and effective method for achieving smooth surface finishes on metal work pieces. With a variety of burnishing tools on the market, it can be challenging to determine which will work best for a specific application.
