Investigations are reported on the influence on removal rate of slurry liquid cavitation, low temperature, liquid metal, and stress corrosion embrittlement of the work material, tool vibration amplitude, grit size and method of application of slurry, and the influence of heat-treatment and applied stress conditions of the workpiece. From these studies it is postulated that there may be three basic mechanisms involved in the ultrasonic machining process—microchip removal and material displacement by plastic deformation, and particle removal by fracture.
