Abstract:
Abrasive jet machining (AJM) also known as abrasive micro-blasting or Pencil blasting is an abrasive blasting machining process that uses abrasives propelled by high velocity gas to erode material from the work piece. It has been applied to rough working such as deburring and rough finishing, machining of ceramics and electronic devices. AJM has become a useful technique for micro machining. It has various distinct advantages over the other non-traditional cutting methods, which are high machining versatility, minimum stresses on the substrate. This paper deals with several experiments that have been conducted by many researchers to assess the influence of abrasive jet machining (AJM) process parameters such as type of abrasive Particle , Abrasive Particle size, Jet pressure Nozzle tip distance. Various experiments were conducted to assess the influence of abrasive jet machine.

Abstract:
Abrasive Suspension Jets (ASJ) is a new micro processing technique developed for micro processing of hard and brittle materials based on the traditional Abrasive Water Jet (AWJ). Based on drilling experiments of glass using MASJ technology, the dependence of material removal, the depth and the diameter of the machined holes on the process parameters, such as working pressure, processing time, standoff distance, incidence angle and concentration of abrasives were investigated. Experimental results show that the material removal is approximately proportional to working pressure, processing time and concentration of abrasives, except the standoff distance. It is founded that the processing time is the most remarkable influence factor on the material removal and the depth of the holes. But the working pressure doesn’t show obvious effects to the material removal and the depth of hole with lower pressure in MASJ. The increase of standoff distance will decrease the material removal and depth of hole, and the concentration of abrasives can improve a few of drilling ability. Further, it is founded that longer processing time and smaller standoff distance will achieve higher MASJ drilling efficiency and better quality of hole, with 90 degree jet incidence angle.

Brittle materials such as glasses, silicon, silicon carbide are normally categorized as difficult to machine materials for its high hardness and brittleness s. However, they have attracted more and more attentions and been playing critical roles in many scientific/engineering applications for their advanced physic/optical/electronic properties. Micro-patterns such as micro-hole (array) of various sizes and shapes are frequently required to be generated on brittle materials. Many researchers have tried different approaches such as laser ablation, ultrasonic machining, rotary ultrasonic machining…. to produce micro-hole in brittle materials. This research applied abrasive jet machining to fabricate micro-hole array on glass. Efforts have been made to investigated the effect of grit-size, stand-off distance, pressure, scanning speed on the material removal rate and the obtained hole accuracy. Micro-holes of various shapes and with characteristic dimension ranged from 0.2mm to 2mm are successfully produced in glass plate of 0.4mm thickness.

Abstract In the process of powder blasting, mask was closely stuck on the substrate to protect the area of substrate not to be powder blasted. The quality characteristics of this process depend completely on the erosion resistance of mask to the powder blasting and the accuracy of mask opening size. this paper will provides a new idea and methods to improve the precision and achieve a good quality of this process. Instead of one protective layer for mask that is conventionally used, two layers are coated on the surface of the substrate material. The inner layer is water-soluble resin with excellent adhesion to the substrate but having weak resistance to powder erosion, and the second layer is a photosensitive oligomer that is adhered well to the first layer and has very high resistance to powder erosion. Once the openings of the second layer are formed at the desired positions via a photo-etching method, a printing method, or other methods, the holes or grooves can be obtained by etching through the openings of the second layer to the first layer and the substrate by a powder blasting process. Then the whole protective coating is easily and smoothly stripped off without any damage to the substrate by dissolving the first layer with water. Such a protective coating possesses two contrary characteristics: high resistance to powder blasting and easy removal from substrate after powder erosion. Due to two layers are coated on the surface of the substrate material, the material of each layer can thus separately be developed to its utmost properties by researcher, and therefore, more space is created for developing in the powder blasting process. In creating a hole on brittle materials by double-side sand blasting, the rebounding sand particle flux during the process may result in underetching at the edge of the mask opening, and leads to a larger sized fluid hole than desired one. In practice, determination of the correct mask opening size was made mainly by trial and error or with fine-tuning of the masking process and compensation for mask wear. In this paper, relationships between the mask opening size and desired size of a hole on both the front and the back sides of the substrate are derived. For the front side, by taking into account the underetching effect, an equation is derived based on kinetic energy theory. For the back side, there is negligible rebounding sand particles, and the mask opening size is set to be equal to the desired size of the hole. Experiments were conducted to verify the derived relationships. It is found that the measured sizes of the eroded holes on both the front and the back sides of the wafer substrate are distributed normally. The desired hole sizes deviate slightly from the median of a normal distribution curve, and the maximum predicted errors are 2.4% and 3.0% for front side and the back side sand blasting, respectively. The very satisfactory result of the predicted errors for various hole size shows that the derived relationships is applicable for determination of mask opening size in powder blasting process. With this improvement of hole accuracy in size, it is expected that the powder blasting process will provide another choice for the process of machining holes on brittle materials.

Abstract:
The effect of particle size, velocity, and angle of attack was investigated on the roughness and erosion rate of unmasked channels machined in borosilicate glass using abrasive jet micro-machining (AJM). Single impact experiments were conducted to quantify the damage due to the individual alumina particles. Based on these observations, an analytical model from the literature was modified and used to predict the roughness and erosion rate. A numerical model was then developed to simulate the brittle erosion process leading to the creation of unmasked channels as a function of particle size, velocity, dose, impact angle and target material properties. For the first time, erosion was simulated using models of two damage mechanisms: crater removal due to the formation and growth of lateral cracks, and edge chipping. Accuracy was further enhanced by simulating the actual relationship between particle size, velocity and radial location within the jet using distributions measured with high-speed laser shadowgraphy. The process of post-blasting AJM channels with abrasive particles at a relatively low kinetic energy was also investigated in the present work by measuring the roughness reduction of a reference unmasked channel in borosilicate glass as a function of post-blasting particle size, velocity, dose, and impact angle. The numerical model was modified and used to simulate the post-blasting process leading to the creation of smooth channels as a function of particle size, velocity, dose, impact angle, and target material properties. Finally, the effect of alumina particle kinetic energy and jet impact angle on the roughness and erosion rate of channels machined in borosilicate glass using abrasive slurry jet micro-machining (ASJM) was investigated. The analytical and numerical models derived for AJM, were found to predict reasonably well the roughness and the erosion rate of ASJM channels, despite the large differences in the fluid media, flow patterns, and particle trajectories in AJM and ASJM.

Abstract:
The present study investigated the effect of dilute polymer solutions on the size, shape, and roughness of channels and holes, machined in metal and glass using a novel abrasive slurry-jet micro-machining (ASJM) apparatus. The apparatus consisted of a slurry pump and a pulsation damper connected to an open reservoir tank to generate a 140-micron turbulent jet containing 1 wt% 10-micron alumina particles. With the addition of 50 wppm of 8-M (million) molecular weight polyethylene oxide (PEO), the widths of the channels and diameters of holes machined in glass decreased by an average amount of 25%. These changes were accompanied by approximately a 20% decrease in depth and more V-shaped profiles compared with the U-shape of the reference channels and holes machined without additives. The present results demonstrate that a small amount of a high-molecular-weight polymer can significantly decrease the size of machined channels and holes for a given jet diameter.

The chapter reports on the investigation of cryogenic-assisted abrasive water jet (CAAWJ) machining of AISI D2 steel with varying the jet impact angles and abrasive mesh sizes. The performance measurement is considered in this study such as depth of penetration and taper ratio. Also, the surface integrity characteristics are considered in the present study such as abrasive contamination, surface topography, XRD peaks, residual stress, and micro hardness. The CAAWJ machining process improves the performance measurement such as higher depth of penetration and lower taper ratio for the machining of D2 steel. Also, the CAAWJ cut surface consists of better surface integrity features over the AWJ cut surface. The phase transformation effect of target material under cryogenic cooling helps to turn the mode of the material removal mechanism from ductile to brittle erosion process and yield a better performance. The results also indicate that the oblique jet impact angles have been produced better performance characteristics than the jet impact angle of 90o at room temperature.

Abstract Pure water jets are not as effective as abrasive water jets for cutting hard materials at large scales. Pure water jets can have kerfs as small as 0.076 mm, which is approximately the width of a human hair. This allows for small detailed cuts on workpiece material [1]. Research into using pure water jet to machine aluminum at small scales is important, as this will allow small scale and precision machining of the work piece material. At micro scales, water jet cutting with typical abrasives is not possible because the abrasive particles are typically in the micron range which is around the size of the cut. At small scales a pure water jet is more effective than abrasive water jet machining, as special nanometer size abrasives would be needed at small scales. A pure water jet only needs the correct size orifice to conduct machining at the small scale. These are the reasons why this study uses a pure water jet to conduct small scale machining of aluminum. This study investigates the use of ABAQUS’s Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics to simulate pure water jet machining of metals and compares the simulation results of a water jet machining of Al6061-T6 to experimental results using the same material. The simulation results compare favorably to experimental results with only 2.81% error in the width of the cut. The predictive FEM modeling is then conducted for other combinations of machining parameters (orifice diameter and inlet pressure). It is found that orifice diameter and inlet pressure have substantial influence on the width and depth of cut. The results of the study open new possibilities for machining metals using a pure water jet at the micrometer scale and at smaller scales.

Abstract:
Preparation of micro/macro channels using unconventional machining methods/processes on hard to machine materials is increasingly in demand in the micro machining industry. AWJM is one such process that can be used for the creation of these channels. Achieving the dimensional accuracy is a challenge because process is influenced by large set of process parameters and further in depth milling process, it is much more challenging than anticipated unlike in conventional machining process. The current research is an attempt to create a channel with varying operating parameters (abrasive size, flow rate, standoff distance and traverse speed) and address the issues of 3D shape generation which is nothing but an overlap of channels for a specific freeform surface. The paper presents the variations in the dimensions of the channel with process parameters. Traverse speed decides the exposure time of the material to the jet and also the erosion capabilities. The experimental results reveal that the channel dimensions are dependent on the standoff distance which leads to the abrasive particle velocity distributions. Results obtained reveals that depth of cut is mainly dependent on the traverse speed followed by particle size. The width of the cut is dependent on the jet diameter which changes with standoff distance. The taper cut is mainly because of the particle distribution which is governed by the abrasive size and the abrasive flow rate. Proceeding in this way, we can understand the influence of process parameters on the dimensional characteristics and further to establish a base for creating complex shapes using AWJM.

Abstract:
Fiber Metal Laminates (FML) are one of the most advanced engineered materials used in aerospace industry. The combination of metallic sheets interspersed in composite laminates in one hybrid material system provides higher impact and corrosion resistance when compared with their monolithic counterparts. However, due to the difference in machining responses for different material phases, conventional machining often induce damages and defects, affecting the cost and structural performance of the part. This research study investigates the machinability of thermoplastic Titanium Graphite (TiGr) FML. The feasibility and machinability of contouring thick (7.6 mm–10.5 mm) TiGr through Abrasive Waterjet (AWJ) process was studied in terms of machined kerf characteristics — taper ratio and surface quality. The effect of a wide range of process parameters was investigated such as geometric variables (mixing tube aspect ratio and orifice bore size), kinetic variables (water pressure, jet traverse speed) and abrasive load ratio on the machining quality. Predictive mathematical regression models were developed through Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) in order to optimize the process. Alongside, machined surface was examined to inspect the topological characteristics, material removal mechanism, and machining induced damage (micro-defects) and distortion through Surface Profilometry, Scanning electron and optical microscopy. A comparison was drawn between conventional and AWJ trimming of TiGr to demonstrate the superiority and high speed machining of AWJ with less damage.
