Popis: It is well known that the superfinishing is a high efficient surface finishing method to cylindrical workpieces. In this method, grinding stones are pressed to the outside of cylindrical surfaces. Rotating cylindrical workpieces and making relative vibrations between grinding stones and ground surfaces in the directions of the center lines of workpiece rotations, the cylindrical surfaces are ground and mirror surfaces are realized relatively in short time. Therefore, this finishing method is widely applied to the finishing of precise machine elements. However, this method cannot be applied in case of that the workpiece which is not simple cylindrical geometries so far. In this study, a new application method of superfinishing to the cylindrical workpieces having curved parts is proposed and its performance is discussed experimentally.
