“…Initially, MR fluids were developed/used for clutches, shock absorbers, and vibration isolators without addition of any abrasive particle. However, in the 1980s, a few researchers [8][9][10] demonstrated MR fluids as polishing media for glass and other materials. Nowadays, MR-fluid-based finishing processes have become an inevitable part of precision manufacturing.…”

“…It is also reported that the small size NMAPs give higher material removal rate (MRR) and finishing rate (FR) (nm/s) compared to bigger size NMAPs. Suzuki et al [11] demonstrated a method for finishing curved workpiece (single-crystal LiNbO 3 ) by magnetic fieldassisted finishing process. When colloidal silica is used as NMAPs, surface roughness of 10 nm, R max , has been obtained.…”

The quality of surface is one of the significant parameters which affects the life and functionality of any product. Many products require nano-level surface finish as their functional indispensability. Those processes having flexible finishing tool can be employed for such type of components. These finishing processes can be classified into two categories: with and without magnetic field assistance. The former includes magnetic abrasive finishing, magnetorheological finishing, and allied processes, and the latter includes abrasive flow finishing. This article reports the critical review of mainly three processes: abrasive flow finishing, magnetorheological finishing, and magnetorheological abrasive flow finishing. In this article, the issues that need attention of the researchers have been categorically mentioned. This article provides a comprehensive literature review of magnetorheological finishing process in terms of rheological characterization of magnetorheological fluid, experimental investigation, theoretical analysis, and applications. This article deals with various advancements in abrasive flow finishing and hybrid processes. The developments in magnetorheological abrasive flow finishing and its allied processes have been discussed in detail. By suitable modification of magnetorheological abrasive flow finishing process, it can achieve surface finish up to nano-meter on different materials such as brass, aluminium, stainless steel, and silicon-nitride.

“…This would lead to a better surface finish even in case of curved surfaces. Suzuki et al [89] developed a method for curved shape workpiece (single-crystal LiNbL3) using magnetic field assisted finishing method. It is reported that when colloidal silica is used as nonmagnetic abrasive particles, surface roughness of less than 10 nm R max can be achieved.…”

Freeform surfaces are being used in a multiplicity of applications in different kinds of industries related to Bio-medical (Bio-implants), micro channels in micro fluidics, automotives, turbine blades, impellers of artificial heart pumps, automobiles etc. Different parts in these industries need nano-level surface finish as their functional inevitability. It is very difficult and challenging to achieve high level of surface finish, especially on the components having freeform (or sculptured) surfaces, complex shapes, and 3-D features. Surface finish is a significant factor, which affects life and functionality of a product. Many traditional and advanced finishing processes have been developed for finishing of freeform/sculptured surfaces but still it has not been possible to achieve uniform nano level surface finish specially in case of freeform surfaces. To overcome the limitations of the existing nanofinishing processes, researchers are developing new processes for uniform nanofinishing of freeform surfaces. In this article, an attempt has been made to review different nanofinishing processes employed for freeform surfaces useful in different types of applications. In addition, experimental work, theoretical analysis and existing challenges of the finishing processes have been identified to fill the research gap.
