| 20100144247 | Abrasive machining media containing thermoplastic polymer - The present invention incorporates at least one thermoplastic or elastomeric polymer in abrasive flow machining media either as the sole or as one of the polymeric constituents. The presence of thermoplastic polymer imparts a greater elastomer characteristic (elasticity, compression resistance, increased relaxation times) as contrasted with traditional media. Enhanced elastomeric characteristics enable more uniform abrasive machining. In a particularly preferred embodiment, silicone- or polyorganosiloxane-based medium contains elastic silicone rubber particles dispersed therethrough to achieve increased relaxation times comparable to those attainable with the inclusion of a thermoplastic polymer. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20080210571 | Machine And Method For Electrochemically Polishing Indentations Within An Aluminum Wheel - A machine for electrochemically polishing indentations within the wall of an aluminum workpiece, such as a wheel, has a cathode attached to an upper platen. The workpiece is mounted upon a lower platen which acts as an anode. Electrolyte is passed between the cathode and the anode while simultaneously a current is applied which passes through the cathode and the anode. The current is selectively pulsed to maximize polishing but at the same time to permit the flushing away of residual material and to cool the cathode and the workpiece. | 09-04-2008 |
