High speed milling is one of the most commonly used machining processes in many fields of the industry. It is regarded as a simple and fast solution to achieve a high material removal rate, which allows an important production of parts. Unbalance is a problem in any machining process but becomes a considerable problem when reaching high speed machining. The vibrations due to an unbalanced tool or tool holder can result in a poor surface quality and a damaged tool. The damping of the vibrations can be achieved with a specially designed tool showing an anti-vibration clearance angle. This paper shows the influence of the anti-vibration clearance angle by a computational model and a set of experiments to see if it can reduce or suppress the vibrations due to unbalance in high speed milling.

Nowadays, titanium alloys are achieving a significant interest in the field of aerospace, biomedical, automobile industries especially due to their extremely high strength to weight ratio, corrosive resistance, and ability to withstand higher temperatures. However, titanium alloys are well known for their higher chemical reactive and low thermal conductive nature which, in turn, makes it more difficult to machine especially at high cutting speeds. Hence, optimization of high-speed machining responses of Ti–6Al–4V has been investigated in the present study using a hybrid approach of multi-objective optimization based on ratio analysis (MOORA) integrated with regression and particle swarm approach (PSO). This optimization approach is employed to offer a balance between achieving better surface quality with maintaining an acceptable material removal rate level. The position of global best suggested by the hybrid optimization approach was: Cutting speed 194 m/min, depth of cut of 0.1 mm, feed rate of 0.15 mm/rev, and cutting length of 120 mm. It should be stated that this solution strikes a balance between achieving lower surface roughness in terms of Ra and Rq, with reaching the highest possible material removal rate. Finally, an investigation of the tool wear mechanisms for three studied cases (i.e., surface roughness based, productivity-based, optimized case) is presented to discuss the effectiveness of each scenario from the tool wear perspective.

The selection of manufacturing conditions is very important in manufacturing processes as these ones determine the material removal rate (MRR) of the so-obtained parts. So in this paper, based on the brief introduction of the experimental principle and the high-speed small hole EDM drilling system, effects of non-electrical parameters on MRR are discussed in detail. The relationships between MRR and these factors are also analyzed. The conclusion can provide an important reference for production in practice.

In the era of mass manufacturing, Material removal rate and Surface Roughness are of primary concern even in manufacturing using contemporary CNC machines. In this work, L27 Orthogonal Array of Taguchi method is selected for three parameters (Depth of cut, Feed and Speed) with three different levels to optimize the turning parameters for Material Removal Rate and Surface Roughness on an EMCO Concept Turn 105 CNC lathe for machining SAE 1020 material with carbide tool. The MRR and SR are observed as the objective to develop the combination of optimum cutting parameters. The objectives were optimized using Taguchi, Grey Taguchi and NSGA-II. The result from these techniques was compared to identify the optimal values of cutting parameters for maximum MRR, minimum SR and best combination of both. This study also produced a predictive equation for determining MRR and SR for a given set of parameters outside the considered values. Thus, with the proposed optimal parameters it is possible to increase the efficiency of machining process and decrease production cost in CNC Lathe.


This paper deals with the experimental investigation and testing on a single point cutting tool with carbide inserts and high speed steel tool. Cutting tool has to be strong enough to withstand the wear resistance. It is to be proved that carbide inserts have better performance than HSS tools on machining operation. Components with higher surface quality, higher material removal rate in less time and lower tool wear is only possible by carbide insert tools. The tool material selected for this experiment are cemented & tungsten carbide inserts along with high speed steel tool on machining medium carbon steel EN19. The complete machining process is performed on cnc lathe machine Hence the intention of this project is to minimize the surface roughness, tool wear, machining time and increasing the material removal rate. Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal array is favor for this investigation work. The result obtained in this project can be further used for optimizing the process parameters there by optimized results helps the operator to improve the quality as well as production rate.

The micro-electrical discharge machining process is hindered by low material removal rate and low surface quality, which bound its capability. The assistance of ultrasonic vibration and magnetic pulling force in micro-electrical discharge machining helps to overcome this limitation and increase the stability of the machining process. In the present research, an attempt has been made on Taguchi based GRA optimization for µEDM assisted with ultrasonic vibration and magnetic pulling force while µEDM of SKD-5 die steel with the tubular copper electrode. The process parameters such as ultrasonic vibration, magnetic pulling force, tool rotation, energy and feed rate have been chosen as process variables. Material removal rate and taper of the feature have been selected as response measures. From the experimental study, it has been found that response output measures have been significantly improved by 18% as compared to non assisted µEDM. The best optimal combination of input parameters for improved performance measures were recorded as machining with ultrasonic vibration (U1), 0.25 kgf of magnetic pulling force (M1), 600 rpm of tool rotation (R2), 3.38 mJ of energy (E3) and 1.5 mm/min of Tool feed rate (F3). The confirmation trail was also carried out for the validation of the results attained by Grey Relational Analysis and confirmed that there is a substantial improvement with both assistance applied simultaneously.

Abstract Optimization of the end milling process is a combinatorial task due to the involvement of a large number of process variables and performance characteristics. Process-specific numerical models or mathematical functions are required for the evaluation of parametric combinations in order to improve the quality of the machined parts and machining time. This problem could be categorized as the offline data-driven optimization problem. For such problems, the surrogate or predictive models are useful, which could be employed to approximate the objective functions for the optimization algorithms. This paper presents a data-driven surrogate-assisted optimizer to model the end mill cutting of aluminum alloy on a desktop milling machine. To facilitate that, material removal rate (MRR), surface roughness (Ra), and cutting forces are considered as the functions of tool diameter, spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. The principal methodology is developed using a Bayesian regularized neural network (surrogate) and a beetle antennae search algorithm (optimizer) to perform the process optimization. The relationships among the process responses are studied using Kohonen’s self-organizing map. The proposed methodology is successfully compared with three different optimization techniques and shown to outperform them with improvements of 40.98% for MRR and 10.56% for Ra. The proposed surrogate-assisted optimization method is prompt and efficient in handling the offline machining data. Finally, the validation has been done using the experimental end milling cutting carried out on aluminum alloy to measure the surface roughness, material removal rate, and cutting forces using dynamometer for the optimal cutting parameters on desktop milling center. From the estimated surface roughness value of 0.4651 μm, the optimal cutting parameters have given a maximum material removal rate of 44.027 mm3/s with less amplitude of cutting force on the workpiece. The obtained test results show that more optimal surface quality and material removal can be achieved with the optimal set of parameters.
