Is important to know what type of roughness parameter you speak. For example, if Ra=1micrometer, is possible to obtain by finish turning (little nose radius tool and little feed too).
Hi Daniel M Krahmer thanks for your interest. I don't have sound knowledge on type of roughness. I want to exploit the finding by Wenzel that cosine of liquid contact angle on a rough surface increases by the factor area increases by roughening over area of original polished surface. http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/j150474a015
Hi Yong Gao...I am curious to know about microblasting. I s there any standard equipment which can impact micron size ganules on a surface in controlled manner ?
Magnetic Pulse Forming is a novel approach that is very reliable and repeatable. High pressure impact of substrate to a form die with the desired pattern imparts high energy and embosses the desired surface finish into the work piece.
