Optimization and analysis of super finishing lathe attachment with pin on disk experiment on ebonite coated disk

Abstract

This paper presents the research work done to solve the problem faced by super-finishing attachment used in lathe machine, which cannot be continuously operated for mass production as it is possible in a full-fledged super finishing machine. Research work is implemented in 50LT attachment and converted it into the continuous working machine thereby making it suitable for mass production without having to purchase costly Super finishing machine and getting similar production only with an attachment on a lathe machine. The research work also provides a solution for the problem faced by attachment when operated in cold working condition wherein the shrinking of the part takes place, and the machine gets a jam, and it becomes impossible to operate, the solution thereby makes the attachment to work in the adverse environment also.
