RECENT ADVANCES IN ABRASIVE FLOW MACHINING PROCESS TECHNOLOGY HAVE LED TO HIGHLY PRODUCTIVE, AUTOMATED SYSTEMS TO MEET THE OUTPUT REQUIREMENTS OF AUTOMOTIVE AND OTHER HIGH-VOLUME MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES. PRODUCTION RATES OF HUNDREDS AND SOMETIMES THOUSANDS OF PARTS PER HOUR ARE ACHIEVED ON COMPONENTS FOR FUEL INJECTION SYSTEMS; TWO STROKE AND FOUR STROKE ENGINES; HYDRAULIC TRANSMISSION, STEERING, AND BRAKE SYSTEMS; SPLINES AND GEARS, BOTH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL; AIR CONDITIONING AND OTHER COMPRESSORS; PUMPS, VALVES, AND FITTINGS; AND SEWING AND TEXTILE MACHINERY COMPONENTS. AT COSTS PER PART COMPARABLE TO CONVENTIONAL FINISHING METHODS, ABRASIVE FLOW MACHINED EDGES AND SURFACES CAN IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY OF CRITICAL HIGH-PRODUCTION COMPONENTS.
