“…Principal advantages cited for industrial ultrasonic machining of metals and ceramics are reduced thermal damage and reduced residual stress levels compared with conventional laser and electrical discharge machining (Singh and Khamba, 2006). Ultrasound technology has been used for industrial materials processing for 80 years and in medical applications for over 50 years.…”

“…For efficient material removal, instruments must be designed with consideration given tomass and shape so that resonance can be achieved within the frequency range capability of the ultrasonic machining instrument (Singh and Khamba, 2006). Ultrasonic surgery systems present the operator with multiple settings, alterations in which can directly affect clinical outcome.…”

Ab s t r a c t High-power low-frequency ultrasound in the range 20-60 kHz has wide ranging clinical applications in surgical and medical instruments for biological tissue cutting, ablation or fragmentation, and removal. Despite widespread clinical application and common device operating characteristics, there is an incomplete understanding of the mechanism of tissue failure, removal and damage. The relative contribution of cavitation, direct mechanical impact and thermal effects to each process for specific tissue types remains unclear. Different and distinct mechanisms and rates of tissue removal are observed for interaction with soft and hard tissue types. Device operating parameters known to affect the interaction include frequency, peak-peak tip amplitude, suction and application time. To date, there has been little analysis of the effect of variations in, and interactions of, these parameters on tissue removal and damage for individual biological tissue types. Potential controllable damage mechanisms occurring in tissues include alteration in global biomechanical properties, histomorphological changes, protein denaturation and tissue necrosis. This paper presents a critical review of the literature on the clinical application, mechanism of tissue interaction, removal and residual tissue damage. It describes known mechanisms for distinct tissue types.

“…The fundamental principles of the USM process, the material removal mechanisms involved and the effect of operating parameters on material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR) and surface roughness (SR) are available in Thoe et al (1998) and Singh and Khamba (2006). Whereas Singh and Khamba (2006) focussed their discussion on the machining of titanium and its alloys, Thoe et al (1998) have given emphasis on the machining of engineering ceramics. They identified the important parameters of the USM process as power rating, type of the tool, slurry concentration, slurry type, slurry temperature, slurry size, ultrasonic amplitude and machining time.…”

Ultrasonic machining (USM) process has multiple performance measures, e.g. material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR), surface roughness (SR) etc., which are affected by several process parameters. The researchers commonly attempted to optimize USM process with respect to individual responses, separately. In the recent past, several systematic procedures for dealing with the multi-response optimization problems have been proposed in the literature. Although most of these methods use complex mathematics or statistics, there are some simple methods, which can be comprehended and implemented by the engineers to optimize the multiple responses of USM processes. However, the relative optimization performance of these approaches is unknown because the effectiveness of different methods has been demonstrated using different sets of process data. In this paper, the computational requirements for four simple methods are presented, and two sets of past experimental data on USM processes are analysed using these methods. The relative performances of these methods are then compared. The results show that weighted signal-to-noise (WSN) ratio method and utility theory (UT) method usually give better overall optimisation performance for the USM process than the other approaches.

“…Kinematics of these processes covers conventional process and assisting factor in the form of oscillatory tool or machining workpiece with a small amplitude and frequency of the ultrasonic, a small amplitude and frequency of the ultrasonic resulting from the reverse piezoelectric effect or magnetostriction. Of particular note is the process of ultrasonic assisted grinding which is applying to the machining of hard, ductile and brittle materials, for example technical ceramic, sintered carbide, quartz [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], and also different constructing material as steel [10][11][12], nickel alloys [13,14] or titan alloys [4,[15][16][17][18]. There are two main types of such process: ultrasonic assisted grinding with tool oscillation and ultrasonic assisted grinding with workpiece oscillation.…”

This article presents the grinding tools designed to serve hybrid machining process -ultrasonic wheel vibration assisted grinding. It describes possibilities of using of different abrasives, grinding wheel clamping systems and holders with ultrasonic oscillation inductor. Realization of Ultrasonic Assisted Grinding (UAG) process is possible on machines with special design. Most machine tools are manufactured on the basis of conventional ones and are retrofitted with ultrasonic vibration system. There are two types of tool holders designed for this machine tool: holders for hybrid machining processes (ultrasonic actors) and holders for conventional processes. Each type of tool holder is fixed to the spindle with hollow taper shank. The tools are attached to the ultrasonic actors by screw and positioned on arbor, or by the collets. For the UAG process tools made of various abrasives are applicable. Binding material, the concentration of abrasive grains and their size may differ. It is possible to use diamond or cubic boron nitride tools and also tools made of conventional abrasives. Ultrasonic Assisted Grinding is a novelty in the field of manufacturing techniques. It is necessary to conduct detailed investigations of this process. The factors that have a significant impact on the UAG results for different materials, the oscillatory motion parameters in relation tool or workpiece as well as on the dressing tool should be investigated.
