With the increase in demand for producing products with good surface finish within reduced time. Selection of suitable parameters for machining in CNC lathe is much required from the operator’s point of view. To attain the desired parameters this study deals taguchi technique as a tool in process parameter optimization using carbon insert CNMG tool in turning of AA6063 alloy. L9 orthogonal array is selected for conducting the experiments and for this Feed, Cutting Speed, Depth of Cut are the process parameters. The ANOVA and S-N ratio is used to analyse the characteristic performance of the turning operation performed. From the results of ANOVA the most influential parameter in reducing the surface roughness is found as depth of cut. Finally for various process parameter combinations the surface roughness is calculated and the optimum parameter for machining is attained by using Taguchi. For authentication of the optimum output attained in optimization experiments have been conducted to get maximum surface finish when machining the aluminium alloy in CNC turning

AbstractA novel two-dimensional ultrasonic surface burnishing process (2D-USBP) is proposed. 7075-T6 aluminum samples are processed by a custom-designed 2D-USBP setup. Parameter optimization of 2D-USBP is conducted to determine the best processing strategy of 7075-T6 aluminum. A uniform design method is utilized to optimize the 2D-USBP process. U13(133) and U7(72) tables are established to conduct parameter optimization. Burnishing depth, spindle speed, and feed rate are taken as the control parameters. The surface roughness and Vickers hardness are taken as the evaluation indicators. It establishes the active control models for surface quality. Dry wear tests are conducted to compare the wear-resistance of the 2D-USBP treated sample and the original sample. Results show that the machining quality of 2D-USBP is best under 0.24 mm burnishing depth, 5000 r/min spindle speed, and 25 mm/min feed rate. The surface roughness Sa of the sample is reduced from 2517.758 to 50.878 nm, and the hardness of the sample surface is improved from 167 to 252 HV. Under the lower load, the wear mechanism of the 2D-USBP treated sample is mainly abrasive wear accompanied by delamination wear, while the wear mechanism of the original sample is mainly delamination wear. Under the higher load, the accumulation of frictional heat on the sample surface transforms the wear mechanisms of the original and the 2D-USBP treated samples into thermal wear.

This paper is to evaluate the cutting force and surface roughness in turning of Glass fiber reinforced plastics (E-glass fiber) using coated carbide insert. The comparison of the results with uncoated carbide inserts. The carbide insert is coated by multilayer chemical vapour deposition process, the coating elements are TiN/Al2O3/TiCN. The experiment is carried out in the conventional lathe machine under dry condition by varying the three cutting parameter such as speed, feed and depth of cut. The cutting force is measured using a lathe tool dynamometer and surface roughness are measured by using surf tester.The result of the experiment shows the effect of machining parameter on cutting force and surface roughness. The results have confirmed that the coated carbide insert has better results than uncoated and tool life is increased.

Abstract Tungsten heavy alloys (WHAs) are ideally suited to a wide range of density applications such as counterweights, inertial masses, radiation shielding, sporting goods and ordnance products. Manufacturing of these components essentially require machining to achieve desired finish, dimensions and tolerances However, machining of WHAs are extremely challenging because of higher values of elastic stiffness and hardness. Hence, there is a need to find the right combination of cutting parameters to carry out the machining operations efficiently. In the present work, turning tests are conducted on three different grades of WHAs, namely, 90WHA, 95WHA and 97WHA. Taguchi analysis is carried out to find out the most contributing factor as well as optimum cutting parameters that can give higher metal removal rate (MRR), lower surface roughness and lower cutting forces. It is observed that feed rate is the most prominent factor with percentage contribution varying in the range of 46–61%; whereas cutting speed has least effect on cutting forces, especially for 95WHA and 97WHA. Optimum values of forces, surface roughness and MRR and the corresponding machining parameters to be taken are presented. It is observed that 95W WHA has slightly better machinability as compared to other two grades since it gives highest MRR with lowest cutting forces and surface roughness values. The optimum machining parameter settings, so predicted, can be utilized to machine WHAs efficiently for manufacture of counter weights and inertial masses used in aerospace applications.
