BALL BURNISHING PROCESS EFFECTS ON SURFACE ROUHGNESS FOR Al 6013 ALLOY

Abstract

Ball burnishing process rapidly developing and applied in many applications. The process's advantageous aspects on the material increase the quality of the product surface. In this study, a surface quality research was made on 6013 series of aluminum alloys which are used frequently in the industry. As a result of the experiments, it was seen that the ball burnishing process increased the surface qualities extremely. At the same time, the results obtained were mathematically analyzed.
