This study applies magnetic abrasive finishing to the precision machining of Ti-6Al-4V (Eli) bars and then assesses the finishing capabilities for application to high-precision machining. Because Ti-6AL-4V (Eli) is widely used in applications where it is exposed to the human body, the industrial grinding oil that is commonly used in the magnetic abrasive finishing process was replaced by vegetable oils; the processing performances of these different grinding oils were compared and verified. The characteristics of magnetic abrasive finishing were also investigated according to the temperature of the material. The experimental results show that olive oil yields a surface roughness improvement of 87%. Also, in terms of the roundness and the amount of material removal, the performance was excellent. This demonstrates the possibility of replacing the conventional industrial oil for grinding. Furthermore, when olive oil was used at different temperatures, the finishing characteristics at room temperature were the most excellent. SEM and EDX analyses of the machined components (before and after processing) showed that the material composition was not changed. Additionally, the magnetic abrasive tool composition was not found on the surface of the finished samples. In conclusion, the possibility of using vegetable oil as the grinding oil for high-precision machining of Ti-6Al-4V (Eli) bars via a magnetic abrasive finishing process at room temperature conditions was verified.
