Abrasive
An abrasive is a material, often a mineral, that is used to shape or finish a workpiece through rubbing which leads to part of the workpiece being worn away by friction.

Burnishing (metal)
Burnishing is the plastic deformation of a surface due to sliding contact with another object.

Chemical-mechanical planarization
Chemical mechanical polishing/planarization is a process of smoothing surfaces with the combination of chemical and mechanical forces.

Diffuse reflection
Diffuse reflection is the reflection of light or other waves or particles from a surface such that a ray incident on the surface is scattered at many angles rather than at just one angle as in the case of specular reflection.

Fabrication and testing of optical components
Optical fabrication and testing spans an enormous range of manufacturing procedures and optical test configurations.

Flame polishing
Flame polishing is a method of polishing a material, usually thermoplastics or glass, by exposing it to a flame or heat.

French polish
French polishing is a wood finishing technique that results in a very high gloss surface, with a deep colour and chatoyancy.

Fresnel equations
The Fresnel equations (or Fresnel coefficients) describe the reflection and transmission of light (or electromagnetic radiation in general) when incident on an interface between different optical media.

Mass finishing
Mass finishing is a group of manufacturing processes that allow large quantities of parts to be simultaneously finished.

Refractive index
In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.

Sodablasting
Sodablasting is a mild form of abrasive blasting in which sodium bicarbonate particles are blasted against a surface using compressed air.

Specular reflection
Specular reflection, also known as regular reflection, is the mirror-like reflection of waves, such as light, from a surface.

Stress concentration
A stress concentration (often called stress raisers or stress risers) is a location in an object where stress is concentrated.

Tumble finishing
Tumble finishing, also known as tumbling or rumbling, is a technique for smoothing and polishing a rough surface on relatively small parts.

Vapor polishing
Vapor polishing is a method of polishing plastics to reduce the surface roughness or improve clarity.

Vibratory finishing
Vibratory finishing is a type of mass finishing manufacturing process used to deburr, radius, descale, burnish, clean, and brighten a large number of relatively small workpieces.
New!!: Polishing and Vibratory finishing · See more »
Wood finishing
Wood finishing refers to the process of refining or protecting a wooden surface, especially in the production of furniture where typically it represents between 5 and 30% of manufacturing costs.
