SCULPTURED SURFACES<br />
In finishing and superfinishing,<br />
especially in<br />
HSM applications, the<br />
target is to reach a<br />
good geometrical and<br />
dimensional accuracy<br />
and reduce or even<br />
eliminate all manual<br />
polishing.<br />

In many cases it is favourable to choose<br />
the feed per tooth, fz, identical with the<br />
radial depth of cut, ae (ƒz = ae).<br />
This gives following advantages:<br />
• very smooth surface finish in all directions<br />
• very competitive, short machining time<br />
• very easy to polish this symmetrical<br />
surface texture, self detecting character<br />
via peaks and valleys<br />
• increased accuracy and bearing resistance<br />
on surface gives longer tool life on die<br />
or mould<br />
• minimum cusp or scallop height decides<br />
