In the cutting process, when the cutting edge leaves the material, burrs are often formed on the edges of the workpiece. Due to inconveniences associated with burrs, such as problems with properly fixing the workpiece on the machine for further processing or problems with parts working in assemblies, deburring operations must be performed. In addition to that, burrs may pose danger for workers at the production stage and for customers at the stage of using the finished product. One of the popular deburring methods is brushing. Apart from deburring, brushing can be used to change surface layer properties. The aim of this study is a comparative analysis of the effect of machining with wire and ceramic brushes on microhardness and the surface quality of EN AW-7075 aluminium alloy. Results show that, for all defined brushing conditions, lower surface roughness parameters are obtained when using ceramic brushes rather than wire brushes. In contrast, the use of wire brushes leads to increased microhardness of the surface layer.

Material separation is one of the basic technological operations. Abrasive water jet machining (AWJM) is a universal cutting method; it is used for almost all structural materials, ranging from easy-to-cut materials such as aluminium alloys to materials that are difficult-to-cut after thermal treatment. In terms of assembly accuracy and product safety, surface quality and edge condition after cutting are of vital importance. Machining with ceramic brushes mounted on the machining centre is one of the methods for improving surface quality and removing burrs after AWJM. The aim of this study is to analyse the influence of machining conditions with ceramic brushes on the surface quality and effectiveness of deburring after abrasive water jet machining of EN AW-7075 aluminium alloy. For all tested brushing treatment conditions lower roughness parameters were obtained compared to the base surface after AWJM. A positive deburring effect was achieved for all fibre types after one brush pass. For the brush with the lowest stiffness fibres a rounded edge was obtained, while for the fibres with higher stiffness – the edges were chamfered.

The pursuit to achieve a broadly defined optimisation of the manufacturing processes imposes the use of the increasingly innovative machining methods. The increase of the machining efficiency, assuring a high surface quality as well as precision of dimensions and shapes, necessitates the search for new methods to meet the demanding requirements, apart from the development of materials used for the working parts of tools, wear-resistant coatings or improvement of the cutting tool point geometry. One of the methods to improve forming by machining is the optimisation of the machining strategy during the manufacture of the components having complex shapes. The progress in this field is particularly noticeable along with development of the software for machining on multi-axis machines. This article presents the results of tests for the impact of machining strategy on passive force, cutting torque, material removal rate, topography of the obtained surface and the shape of chip resulting from the aluminium alloy milling. The tests were performed by comparison of the classic strategy available in the NXCAM system to the iMachining technology.
