Abstract

Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM) uses elasto-plastic polymer as a fluid that carries the fine abrasive
particles which together make a flexible tool. This tool can be used for fine finishing of difficult to reach areas like profiled
holes, passages, complex hollow sections, etc. economically which is otherwise not possible using other micro finishing
processes. Components produced using AFM have a consistently excellent uniformity and repeatability. The process
parameters of AFM which have impact on the product quality are flow rate, flow volume, extrusion pressure, etc. This
research paper is intended to study the effect of the process parameters of Abrasive Flow Machining on the intended
outcomes as reported by various researchers.
