Different operations such as grinding, lapping, honing, buffing, barrel rolling, polishing, super finishing, and burnishing are required to be performed to achieve the high surface finish. Amongst all, burnishing is a process where the hard roller or a ball tool is engaged to the workpiece to get the better surface finish. In the present study, using Taguchi approach preliminary plan is made for the experimentation then according to it a roller burnishing of the 20MnCr5 workpiece at different input conditions is performed. From the analysis, it is concluded that the hardness of the material is the main contributing factor for burnishing process. Keywords - Burnishing, Depth of penetration, Feed, Speed, Hardness, Surface roughness. I.

  • Repivoting Arbors - Slip Fit & Loctite Method Also “The Polishing and Burnishing of Arbors”
    Repivoting Arbors - Slip fit & Loctite Method Also “The Polishing and Burnishing of Arbors” Another of the more advanced clockmaking tasks is the repivoting of arbors to replace worn or broken pivots. As with many aspects of clockmaking, there are a couple of approaches to this task. Ultimately, the replacement pivot needs to be concentric and properly burnished and this article discusses the “slip fit & Loctite method” which is the approach I used to successfully pass that part of my AWCI Certified Clockmaker exam. SECTION I: Repivoting Arbors Step 1: Determine Original Dimensions: Measure pivot diameter, pivot length, arbor shoulder to shoulder. Goal is to replicate the original dimensions for the certification test. This is not as critical in real practice as one can re-bush the pivot hole. a. Use the Vernier calipers to measure the shoulder to shoulder dimension. b. Use the micrometer for pivot diameter c. Use 1/100th or 1/64th ruler for pivot length Step 2: Check Lathe for Truth: Place male centers in headstock and tailstock to check for alignment. If they are not perfectly aligned, Loosen headstock & tailstock, realign until the male centers are pointed directly at each other and then snug up the headstock & tailstock. Recheck the male centers and if aligned, remove the male centers. If not aligned, which can happen after snugging them up, repeat the aforementioned re-alignment process. Step 3: Check Wheel for Truth: Fit up wheel in lathe & check wheel, arbor and remaining pivot for truth. Oppose arbor and pivot against a male center in the tailstock and adjust them as necessary.

  • Antares, Inc. Fact Sheets Surface Engraving © 2011 - Antares, Inc
    Antares, Inc. Fact Sheets Surface Engraving © 2011 - Antares, Inc. Section One - Burnishing Description Burnishing is a surface marking technique intended for coated metals - usually lacquered brass - where the coating is removed to expose the bare metal. It is a method of rotary engraving on metals that tends to bridge the gap between diamond drag (scratch engraving) and routing. The biggest advantage of burnishing is that it enables the engraver to produce wider line widths than are obtainable with a diamond graver with- out having to cut deeply into the metal. Burnishers can be used with single and multiple line fonts, and are excellent for producing detailed line and logo work on metal. Burnishing offers the ability to create enhanced effects on both lettering and graphics and is relatively simple process. Rotating Tools Non-Rotating Point Variable Tip Sizes Tip Only Cutting with Depth Surface Marking Only Application The most common application is on the brass plates on trophies and plaques. This “trophy brass” is a rela- tively hard material that yields excellent burnishing results. It is available in various gold tones with clear or colored lacquer coatings. When burnishing the gold material, the lacquer is removed exposing the bare metal. The burnished areas can then be oxidized or blackened resulting in a gold plate with contrasting black letters. (See “Color Filling Fact Sheet”). When burnishing the colored materials, the result is a colored plate with contrasting gold letters without the need for further treatment. Burnishing can also be done on materials other than brass. However, much of the success or failure de- pends on the hardness of the material.

  • Lustersheen the Burnisher Aka the Pine Brush
    Lustersheen 866 – 3 4 3 – 3 3 7 7 The Burnisher aka the Pine Brush There is no better tool for working with wax than this brush. If you are trying to achieve a high, hard luster with the European hard finish waxes like Briwax, Lustra and Classic this is the tool to do it with. Not only is it a real time and labor saver, but it does bring the wax to a higher and harder luster than can usually be achieved by hand. The Tampico bristles push deep into recesses of carvings and moldings, and also deep into the pores of an open surface, which results in more of the wax being burnished and brought to a luster. Often, when buffing by hand on porous surfaces, a cloth or lamb’s wool rides above and glides on the high points. These high points are burnished, but the lows are left untouched. That is why when buffed and burnished with "The Burnisher" there is more luster because in actuality more surface area of the wax has been burnished. Remember, if you are trying to achieve a high, hard lustrous wax finish, the key is applying an optimally thin coat / film or application. It is this thin film which should then be buffed and burnished to a luster. Excess wax needs to be removed, and makes for streaks and a gummy wax film which easily “prints” and picks up marks, condensation rings and finger prints. Finishing waxes are at their highest, hardest luster when optimally thin. 1) Apply the finishing wax, usually with #0000 steel wool, to a thin film, working it on to the substrate thoroughly.

  • Cabinet Scraper
    Cabinet Scraper 05P32.05 The Veritas® Cabinet Scraper is a very versatile tool, capable of both rough and fi ne work. As supplied, both edges of the blade are ground at 45° and need only burnishing for rough work such as removing paint, glue squeeze-out prior to planing, dirt or old fi nish. By honing the blade before burnishing the edges, the scraper can be used to smooth highly fi gured wood with no danger of tear-out, producing a surface that can rival a fi ne smoothing plane. The double-edged blade halves the number of sharpening sessions. The handles are designed to allow an effective two-handed grip with the force of the stroke directly in line with the cutting edge. The type of cutting action generated by this tool is ideal for hardwood but generally unsuitable for fi ne work on soft woods such as pine, butternut, basswood and cedar, although Blade Clamp Screw Camber Screw Body Clamp Bar Figure 1: Cabinet scraper components. it will still be useful for rough work such as cleaning off glue. Sharpening Remove the lacquer coating on a new blade. The scraper blade is supplied with both its edges ground at 45°. Depending on the type of work you will be doing with the cabinet scraper and the condition of the blade, you may not need to follow all the steps detailed below. For example, if you wish to get started on rough work, go directly to Step 3 — Burnishing. For fi ne work with a new blade, start with Step 2 — Honing, but for sharpening 2 a used blade, start with Step 1 — Preparation.
