CoCrMo alloys, which are well-known Co-based biomedical alloys, have many different types of surface integrity problems reported in literature. Residual stresses, white layer formation and work hardening layers are some those, matters which occur as a microstructural alteration during machining. Therefore, such problems should be solved and surface quality of end products should be improved. In this paper, the surface quality of CoCrMo alloy used in tibial component of the knee prosthesis produced by means of turning was investigated. An improvement was suggested and discussed for the improvement in their machinability with the developed turning-grinding method. Finite element analyses were also carried out to calculate temperature and thermal stresses distribution between the tool and the tibial component. The results showed that many parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, tool geometry, and tool wear affect the surface quality of workpieces of CoCrMo alloy. In the turning-grinding method, the machining time is reduced by about six times compared to machining only method. The EDX analysis performed on the surface after machining showed that metal diffusion occurred from tool to the tibial component.

The extension of technical capabilities of machine centres for complete machining of components can improve their performance. In the field of sheet metal machining, the objective beside the classic milling operation was a generation of functional surfaces by face brushing. The experimental studies have probed the influence of tools and technological parameters on the surface quality. In addition to an analysis of the relevant roughness parameters the formation of the surface topography was analysed by several measurement methods. By the application of force measurement, the results of the surface quality can be interpreted additionally. It could be shown that the feed rate in contrast to the cutting speed has the main influence on the surface roughness. A peculiarity is given by the parameter-based width of cut that should be known for reliable process control. The acquired data can be applied in the form of process characteristic fields for further processing with simulation and modelling methods.

Abstract The current state of surface roughness focuses on the 2D roughness. However, there are shortcomings in evaluating surface quality of particle reinforced metal matrix composites using 2D roughness due to the fact that the measuring direction has a vital impact on the 2D roughness value. It is therefore of great importance and significance to develop a proper criterion for measuring and evaluating the surface roughness of cutting particle reinforced metal matrix composites. In this paper, an experimental investigation was performed on the effect of cutting parameters on the surface roughness in cutting in-situ TiB2/7050Al MMCs. The 2D roughness Ra, 3D roughness Sa and Sq were comparatively studied for evaluating the machined surface quality of in-situ TiB2/7050Al MMCs. The influence of cutting parameters on the surface roughness was also analyzed. The big difference between roughness Ra measured along cutting and feed directions showed the great impact of measuring direction. Besides, surface defects such as pits, grooves, protuberances and voids were observed, which would influence 2D roughness value greatly, indicating that 3D roughness was more suitable for evaluating surface quality of cutting in-situ TiB2/7050Al MMCs. The cutting depth and feed rate were found to have the highest influence on 3D roughness while the effect of cutting speed was minimal. With increasing feed rate, cutting depth or width, the 3D roughness increased accordingly. But it decreased as cutting speed increased.

The experiment that WXD170-type reciprocating rotating diamond wire saw cuts SiC wafer was studied using orthogonal test method in this paper. The influence of cutting speed of diamond wire saw, work-piece feed speed and rotating speed of work-piece on cutting process were analyzed. The optimized cutting parameters which can improve surface quality of slices and reduce tangential force were obtained. The results show that: the surface quality of slices which was cloud-shaped can be improved significantly due to the increase of the work-piece rotation. The work-piece feed speed and the rotation speed have greater impact on the tangential force than the saw wire speed; the work-piece feed speed and the work-piece rotation speed have greater impact on surface roughness than the saw wire speed. An important way to be obtained the smaller tangential force and better surface quality of slices is considering of a reasonable match among cutting speed of diamond wire saw, work-piece feed speed and rotating speed of work-piece comprehensively.

The following article gives an overview on the manufacturing challenges of milling green stage zirconia. Significant influence factors on the surface quality like machine type, cutting parameters, milling strategy and post processing were investigated. The results show a minimal influence of the machine type. Furthermore machining zirconia with high cutting speed and low cutting depth best for surface quality. Tool wear and milling strategies have major influences on surface roughness and chipping. The combination milling strategy leads to material cracks and has negative impacts on the surface quality. Post processes like polishing and sintering improves surface roughness by 50 % after the milling.

The aim of this research was to study factors, which was influenced on surface roughness in vertical milling of hardened medium carbon steel. The specimen was medium carbon steel grade JIS S50C that was hardened at 56± 2 HRC. Full factorial experimental design was conducted by 3 factors and 3 levels (33 design) with 2 replications. Studied factors were consisted of cutting speed, feed rate, and air coolant pressure. The results revealed that influenced factor affected to surface roughness was cutting speed and feed rate which showed significantly different. Higher cutting speed would cause on better surface quality. On the other hand, poorer surface quality was produced by higher feed rate. However, factors interaction were found between cutting speed with air coolant pressure and feed rate with air coolant pressure that significantly influenced to surface roughness. The interaction of high cutting speed with high air coolant pressure would be better quality of surface finish and lower feed rate with high air coolant pressure would be better surface quality.

The use of magnesium alloys in construction of different components of the mechanical systems (such: cars, aerospace vehicles, medical equipment etc.) is very efficient not only because it leads to reduction of the systems weight but also because it leads to reduction or elimination of the environment polluting and to reduction of the energy consumption. Generally, the main factors that influence the quality of the machined surfaces are as follows: cutting parameters, material properties, geometry of the tools, cooling liquids and lubricants, physical and mechanical properties of the subsurface layers etc. Among the above mentioned factors, cutting parameters are the factors that strongly influence the quality of the machined surfaces. The present paper analysis the results of the experimental investigation performed to determine the influence of cutting parameters (cutting speed, feed rate and cutting depth) on the surface quality machined by turning the AZ61 magnesium alloy. The main characteristics of the machined surface quality analyzed in experimental investigation were the surface roughness and hardness. The main conclusions resulted from the results analysis were as follows: the decrease of the feed rate led to surface roughness decrease and hardness increase; the increase of the cutting speed also led to an improved surface quality.

Milling is a common machining process with high cutting speed and material removal rate. High cutting speed tends to generate heat at the interface between tool and workpiece. This may reduce the surface quality of the workpiece and reduce the tool life. The application of conventional cutting fluid to reduce friction and heat between tool and workpiece may produce numerous environmental problems. The vegetable-based lubricant as an alternative for measuring the effect on surface quality during milling operation is studied. The relation between machining parameters such as spindle speed, feed rate, depth of cut and lubricants is analyzed by using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The optimization of surface quality is analyzed by using Box-Behnken Design of RSM. The research focused on using sunflower oil as lubricant during machining process using mild steel solid block with TiCN coated HSS tools and using synthetic oil as comparison. Surface roughness for using sunflower oil as lubricant is 0.457 μm which lower compared to synthetic oil with 0.679 μm. Feed rate and spindle speed give the most significant effect to the surface roughness during milling operation. The application of vegetable-based oil as lubricant gives better surface quality, prevent tool wear and offer environmental advantages.
