The final shape of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials is usually given by machining. However, machining FRP materials is complex and difficult. Appropriate cutting tools and cutting parameters should be determined to overcome these difficulties. In this work, glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) materials with 60% and 68% fiber ratio, produced by pultrusion method, were machined. End of the milling, surface roughness (Ra), delamination damage factor (Fdd), sound and vibration results were analyzed. Experiments were carried out with Taguchi L[Formula: see text] mixed design and the results were analyzed by Taguchi, ANOVA and Pareto charts. In Taguchi and Pareto analyses, the most effective parameter for surface roughness and delamination damage factor was the feed rate, and the cutting velocity for sound and vibration. Different regression models have been tried. Linear regression was found as most suitable. The significance values of the regression models are 92.04% for surface roughness, 87.12% for delamination damage factor, 98.64% for sound and 73.27% for vibration.

Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites

The use of natural fiber composites is growing at a fast rate in terms of industrial applications due to their eco-friendly, recyclable, renewable nature, and low density/costs. Recently, jute fiber is being used as a reinforcement material in the development of natural fiber reinforced plastics for engineering applications. Drilling is an essential machining operation that is frequently performed for making of holes in composite structures to facilitate assembly of several components into a complex part. The literature reviews indicate that only a few of research articles investigated drilling of natural fiber reinforced composites. Hence, in the present research, drilling of woven jute fiber reinforced polymer composites has been examined. This study aimed at evaluation of cutting parameters and drill bit types effect on thrust force, delamination size, and surface roughness in the jute fiber reinforced polymer composites drilling using an experimental design based on full factorial technique. The percentage contribution of the cutting parameters and drill bit types were determined through the analysis of variance. The optimal setting of these parameters was found through observation. The experimental results indicated that the most significant effect was the drill bit type influencing both delamination factor and surface roughness.

Optimization Of Cutting Parameters

Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites find wide applications in automobile, aerospace, aircraft and marine industries due to their attractive properties such as lightness of weight, high strength-to-weight ratio, high stiffness, good dimensional stability and corrosion resistance. Although these materials are required in a wide range of applications, their non-homogeneous and anisotropic properties make their machining troublesome and consequently restrict their use. It is thus important to study not only the machinability of these materials but also to determine optimum cutting parameters to achieve optimum machining performance. The present work focuses on turning of the GFRP composites with an aim to determine the optimal cutting parameters that yield the optimum output responses. The effect of three cutting parameters, i.e., spindle rotational speed (N), feed rate (f) and depth of cut (d) in conjunction with their interactions on three output responses, viz., Material Removal Rate (MRR), Tool Wear Rate (TWR), and Surface roughness (Ra), is studied using full factorial design of experiments (FFDE). The statistical significance of the cutting parameters and their interactions is determined using analysis of variance (ANOVA). To relate the output response and cutting parameters, empirical models are also developed. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) combined with Genetic Algorithm (GA) is employed for multi-response optimization to simultaneously optimize the MRR, TWR and Ra.

There are numerous engineering applications where Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composite tubes are utilized, such as desalination plants, power transmission systems, and paper mill, as well as marine, industries. Some type of machining is required for those various applications either for joining or fitting procedures. Machining of GFRP has certain difficulties that may damage the tube itself because of fiber delamination and pull out, as well as matrix deboning. Additionally, short machining tool life may be encountered while the formation of powder like chips maybe relatively hazardous. The present paper investigates the effect of process parameters for surface roughness of glass fiber-reinforced polymer composite pipes manufactured using the filament winding process. Experiments were conducted based on the high-speed turning Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine using Poly-Crystalline Diamond (PCD) tool. The process parameters considered were cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut. Mathematical models for the surface roughness were developed based on the experimental results, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) has been performed with a confidence level of 95% for validation of the models.

These years, the mold has become a very important forming tool in modern industry. And the die steel is the most important technical and material base in mold industry. To obtain the optimized cutting parameters, this paper introduced the cutting performance of WC-Co carbide cutting tools (P10) from cutting force, the surface roughness, chip deformation and the chip-breaking performance in turning 4Cr13 die steel. And the cutting parameters were optimized by homogeneous design method and multiple linear regression analysis method in this paper. The regression models on cutting forces and surface roughness with the cutting parameters were studied and taken the tests of significance. The result showed that it was more suitable for finish turning 4Cr13 die steel using WC-Co carbide tools at vc =183.3m/min, f=0.2mm/r, ap=0.75mm or vc =200m/min, f=0.1mm/r, ap=1mm.

Optimization of the drilling parameters of the composite material is the key objective of this research, enhancing the surface roughness and minimizing the tool wear. In contrary to the other research, optimizing the machining parameters for a specific composite material for the mass productions, machining parameters are optimized for GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer), CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) and KFRP (Kevlar Fiber Reinforced Polymer) for the job shop production. In this research, the machining parameters are optimized for the enhanced surface roughness and minimum tool wear by varying the three types of composite material and three levels of the cutting speed. Nine experiments were performed, which were repeated twice in random manner to eliminate the biasness of the results. In these experiments, PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coated carbide inserts are used with the same geometry. Seventeen holes were machined in a single experiment, which surface roughness is measured by cutting the composite plate from middle of the hole and using the Countermatic surface roughness meter at different locations. Average surface roughness is determining for each set of varying parameters and plotted to observe the set of parameters for the minimum surface roughness. It has been observed that the minimum surface roughness are observed at; 1500 rpm in GFRP, 2000 rpm in CFRP and at 2500 rpm in KFRP. Finally, the wear patterns are also observed on the drill inserts using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) and it has been found that no prominent wear has been observed in the drill inserts, whereas, prominent depletion of coating are found at the higher cutting speed.
