Abstract Magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) has attracted much attention as an advanced nano-finishing technology in achieving highquality surface for finishing superalloys, composites, and ceramics. This paper provides a comprehensive review on MAF process which is mainly organized by different six sections, including MAF principles, magnetic abrasive preparation, MAF tools, MAF modeling and simulation, MAF characteristics, and challenges and future directions. The principle of MAF for internal workpiece and flat workpiece is mainly introduced. Magnetic preparation methods, including simply mixing method, bonding method, sintering method, gas atomization, and rapid solidification method, are described in detail. The design of MAF tools for outer surface and inner surface is summarized. It also covers some models and simulations to predict optimal processing parameters. Force measurement and material removal mechanism to explore the MAF processes are performed. Finally, challenges and future directions are provided. This review is beneficial to researchers and practitioners in the MAF-related fields. Keywords Magnetic abrasive finishing . Abrasive preparation . Finishing tools . Modeling . Simulation

1 Introduction High-performance parts characterized by ultra-precision complex surface and functional micro-/nano-surface layers are mainly used in aerospace industry, semiconductors, and medical devices [1]. High-quality surface is usually achieved by variable traditional approaches such as grinding [2], lapping [3], and honing [4]. The above traditional processes are restricted from the following aspects: difficulties in fixture design according to different workpiece shapes and sizes, the limitation of advanced engineering materials, the low efficiency, and accuracy [5]. Nowadays, some untraditional nanofinishing technologies, including abrasive flow machining (AFM), magnetic field-assisted finishing (MFAF), elastic emission machining (EEM), and ion beam machining (IBM), are proposed for fabrication of precision components to solve defects of traditional polishing [6]. MFAF is generally * Yebing Tian [email protected]; [email protected] 1
