THIS PAPER PRESENTS INITIAL RESULTS FROM RESEARCH OF THE HONING PROCESS RECENTLY UNDERTAKEN AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS. THE MECHANICS AND KINEMATICS OF THE HONING PROCESS ARE BRIEFLY REVIEWED AS THE BASIS FOR DESCRIBING A TEST RIG WHICH HAS BEEN DEVELOPED. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS ARE PRESENTED WHICH SHOW THE EFFECT OF THE APPLIED HONING FORCE AND STONE GRIT SIZE ON THE POWER, REMOVAL RATE, SPECIFIC ENERGY, STONE WEAR, AND SURFACE ROUGHNESS. THE RESULTS OF THIS RESEARCH WILL LEAD TO A COMPREHENSIVE PHYSICAL MODEL OF THE HONING PROCESS TO BE PRACTICALLY APPLIED TO SELECTION OF OPTIMAL HONING CONDITIONS AND EVALUATING HONING STONES AND FLUIDS.
