Abstract: 35zSF2 r--2-" When Eli Whitney originated the concept of mass production he generated the problem of mass deburring.Today burr removal costs U. S. industry an estimated two billion dollars.ayear.Despite this high price industry in general treats deburring as a necessary evil and relies on "art" and tradition rather than science to eliminate it.The following bibliography represents one of several initial attempts to.make burr removal as reliable and predictable a science as metal cutting is.T'he information contained in the references cited will provide the reader with an understanding of burr formation, properties, the mechanics of each deburring 5 process, and a general comparison between the capabilities of each process.The references listed in this bibliography• describe one or more of the eighteen principle deburring or daflashing processes, the equipment or tooling used, how to use a process, the economics involved, the formation of burrs, or measures taken to prevent burrs.As such this paper covers both burrs and deburring.Many of the deburring processes are also frequently used to improve surface finish, clean, and descale.Only those articles which are directly related to deburring or .whichpresent significant related data are included in this paper, however.While many articles discuss more than just deburring, the annotated comments in this bibliography essentially describe only the deburring aspects of each article.The references shown were unearthed in a search of the following documents.
