磨料流加工 (AFM) 是一种独特的加工方法，用于在难以接近的内部轮廓和外部边缘上实现高表面质量。使用 AFM，可以去除复杂形状的相交孔的毛刺，并在任何脆性或硬质材料上实现预定义的边缘倒圆。此外，它很容易集成到自动化制造环境中。结果的可重复性节省了工业应用中各种耗时和成本高昂的手动操作。然而，为了在新的应用中实施，需要进行昂贵且耗时的初步调查，并且必须由经过培训的人员进行。因此，最近研究活动的目的是确定该过程的基本原理、设置参数和工作结果之间的功能相关性。本文提出了一种使用数值模拟来开发过程模型的方法。此外，还引入了一个模型来描述使用 AFM 去毛刺过程的基本原理。
Abrasive flow machining (AFM) is a unique machining method used to achieve high surface quality on inner, difficult-to-access contours and on outside edges. Using AFM, it is possible to deburr complex shaped intersecting holes and to realize pre-defined edge rounding on any brittle or hard material. Moreover it is easy to integrate into an automated manufacturing environment. Reproducibility of results saves various time and cost consuming manual operations in industrial applications. However for an implementation in new applications costly and time-consuming preliminary investigations are required that have to be carried out by trained staff. Therefore the aim of recent research activities is to identify the fundamentals of the process, the functional correlations between setting parameters and work results. This paper presents an approach using a numerical simulation to develop a process model. Furthermore a model is introduced that describes the fundamental principles of the deburring process using AFM.
