Abstract

In many engineering applications, erosion is one of the frequently occurring wear phenomena, either in favor or against the desired performance. Positive aspects of abrasive wear are the focused area of this study. An abrasive jet machining (AJM) system propels irregular shaped abrasive particle with high velocity for machining of difficult-to-machine work materials. Investigation of machining rate in terms of material removal rate (MMR) is the key issue of this nontraditional machining process. In addition to this, the reusability of the abrasive particle for subsequent machining cycle is another area of interest. The investigation is carried out for the sustainability of the process on the two hard-to-machine engineering materials, soda lime glass and laminated glass. The rate of erosion is measured under various processing conditions by changing different process parameters. Effect of different process parameters on MRR is explored. The reusability of abrasive silica sand is also investigated.
