Abstract

One of the remarkable achievements of nanotechnology is the ability to achieve nanometric surface finishes in single-point diamond turning of high-precision components for complex optical surfaces. A better understanding of the surface generation mechanisms is of prime importance for the development for the prediction of the surface roughness. This paper presents a study of mechanisms of nano-surface generation in single-point diamond turning of various types of materials.
