Optimization of Roller Burnishing Process for Industrial Applications

Burnishing is a cold-working process in which plastic deformation occurs by means of applied pressure through a very hard and smooth metal ball or roller. Application of burnishing processes can improve surface finish, yield strength, fatigue resistance, wear resistance, surface hardness, tensile strength and corrosion resistance. As in this process, there is no removal of the extra material from the surface of a work piece, so burnishing is a chip-less finishing process.
