Abstract

Titanium specially has high specific strength, excellent mechanical properties as fatigue strength and fracture ductility, good corrosion resistance, and therefore are broadly applied to the various fields. It is required the developmennt for the skills of wire-cut electrical discharge machining(WEDM), but the WEDMed surface was found to be worst due to the attached components of wire. Therefore precision maching method like lapping is necessary for getting high quilty surface. Roughness of lapped surface, surface hardness to each process depth and improved method of surface shape were stuided experimentally, by changing of grain size of diamond lap material and lapping pressure with constant speed in lapping process.
