Abstract:
A process to effectively remove machine lines blending the surface to a high luster uniform visual standard while reducing the surface roughness to below 8 Micro inches. The process does not remove or move the affected material greater than 0.02 mm, and the process is designed to produce a visually acceptable part that reduces surface roughness below 8 micro inches and holds tightly toleranced complex geometries.
