The specific energy consumption of machine tools and surface roughness are important indicators for evaluating energy consumption and surface quality in processing. Accurate prediction of them is the basis for realizing processing optimization. Although tool wear is inevitable, the effect of tool wear was seldom considered in the previous prediction models for specific energy consumption of machine tools and surface roughness. In this paper, the prediction models for specific energy consumption of machine tools and surface roughness considering tool wear evolution were developed. The cutting depth, feed rate, spindle speed, and tool flank wear were featured as input variables, and the orthogonal experimental results were used as training points to establish the prediction models based on support vector regression (SVR) algorithm. The proposed models were verified with wet turning AISI 1045 steel experiments. The experimental results indicated that the improved models based on cutting parameters and tool wear have higher prediction accuracy than the prediction models only considering cutting parameters. As such, the proposed models can be significant supplements to the existing specific energy consumption of machine tools and surface roughness modeling, and may provide useful guides on the formulation of cutting parameters.

The application of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel in various industrial fields has been greatly increased, but poor machinability classifies AISI 304 as a difficult-to-cut material. This study investigated the tool wear, surface topography, and optimization of cutting parameters during the machining of an AISI 304 flange component. The machining features of the AISI 304 flange included both cylindrical and end-face surfaces. Experimental results indicated that an increased cutting speed or feed aggravated tool wear and affected the machined surface roughness and surface defects simultaneously. The generation and distribution of surface defects was random. Tearing surface was the major defect in cylinder turning, while side flow was more severe in face turning. The response surface method (RSM) was applied to explore the influence of cutting parameters (e.g., cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut) on surface roughness, material removal rate (MRR), and specific cutting energy (SCE). The quadratic model of each response variable was proposed by analyzing the experimental data. The optimization of the cutting parameters was performed with a surface roughness less than the required value, the maximum MRR, and the minimum SCE as the objective. It was found that the desirable cutting parameters were v = 120 m/min, f = 0.18 mm/rev, and ap = 0.42 mm for the AISI 304 flange to be machined.

This research presents a model for prediction surface roughness in terms of process parameters in turning aluminum alloy 1200. The geometry to be machined has four rotational features: straight, taper, convex and concave, while a design of experiments was created through the Taguchi L25 orthogonal array experiments in minitab17 three factors with five Levels depth of cut (0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10 and 0.12) mm, spindle speed (1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000) r.p.m and feed rate (60, 70, 80, 90 and 100) mm/min. A multiple non-linear regression model has been used which is a set of statistical extrapolation processes to estimate the relationships input variables and output which the surface roughness which prediction outside the range of the data. According to the non-linear regression model, the optimum surface roughness can be obtained at 1800 rpm of spindle speed, feed-rate of 80 mm/min and depth of cut 0.04 mm then the best surface roughness comes out to be 0.04 μm at tapper feature at depth of cut 0.01 mm and same spindle speed and feed rate pervious which gives the error of 3.23% at evolution equation.

In this present work use a genetic algorithm for the selection of cutting conditions in milling operation such as cutting speed, feed and depth of cut to investigate the optimal value and the effects of it on the material removal rate and tool wear. The material selected for this work was Ti-6Al-4V Alloy using H13A carbide as a cutting tool. Two objective functions have been adopted gives minimum tool wear and maximum material removal rate that is simultaneously optimized. Finally, it does conclude from the results that the optimal value of cutting speed is (1992.601m/min), depth of cut is (1.55mm) and feed is (148.203mm/rev) for the present work.
