Key capabilities of various MAAF process.
| Process | Aim | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| BEMRF | To create a flexible bush at the end of magnetorheological polishing tool | Any freeform surface can be finished by maintaining proper gap |
| MRFF | Use of different types of MR fluid like chemical based, water based and oil based | Very hard material like titanium can be finished upto nanometric level |
| PMT | Use of permanent magnet instead of electromagnet | Heating effect due to electromagnet coils can be avoided and soft diamagnetic copper alloy can be finished |
| MFAF | A magnetic fixture for permanent magnet was created for titanium workpiece | It can be made possible to concentrate all the magnetic lines on the workpiece |
| MRAH | Combination of conventional honing process with MR effect of MRF technology | Finishing time can be reduced by rotating the job with MR effect |
| R-MRAFF | Rotation of permanent magnet fixture along with reciprocating motion of MR fluid | High finishing rate and uniform finishing of all faces |
