This study aims to finish effectively the thin magnesium (AZ31) alloy plate that is usually very difficult to be polished by the conventional cutting processes because of their explosive and fragility properties. Reaction components on the workpiece surface roughness were measured after the magnetic abrasive polishing of the magnesium alloy plate. Taguchi experimental design method was adopted for evaluating the effect of the process parameters on the improvement of the surface roughness by the magnetic abrasive polishing. The process parameters were the applied current to the inductor, the working gap between the workpiece and the inductor, the rotational speed and the feed speed. Optimal conditions for better surface roughness were determined using the S/N ratio. As a result, it was seen that the magnetic abrasive polishing was very useful for finishing the thin magnesium alloy plate.
