Abstract The electrical discharge machining (EDM) process is mostly used in conditions that complex and intricate shapes need to be machined on very hard metals. However, the process leaves behind some undesirable properties such as high surface roughness, rough topography, high residual tensile stresses, micro-cracks, heat-affected zone (HAZ) and recast layer. This paper investigates the effects of different output parameters on the properties listed above. The input parameters studied include current, pulse-on time, and the type of dielectric; and the material being machined is AISI 1045 steel. Results show that the deionized water improved the output variables in EDM. The use of deionized water as the dielectric, not only improved the machined surfaces’ topography but also lowered the micro-cracks and HAZ thickness. The experiments also show how the pulse-on and current time affect the outcome of EDM machining of AISI 1045 steel.

To optimize machining processes in Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) on a certain machining area, it is required to control its machining parameters such as electrical current (I) and pulse on time (Ton). This research aims to study the effect of machining parameters on electrode wear (EW) and metal removal rate (MRR) in EDM processes. It also attempts to investigate the taper effect in a hole machining by using EDM. To study the influence of machining area, several electrode diameters are employed, i.e. 10 mm, 12 mm and 20 mm. Experiment is performed on AISI 1045 steel by using copper electrode. The result shows that Ton and I influences EW and MRR in an opposite way. It also reveals that larger diameter electrode tends to decrease the ratio of EW and MRR. To obtain an optimum machining with smaller taper efect, it is recommended to use Ton between 700 msec to 1700 msec. With those Ton values, the optimum condition is given by I value of 6 Amp.

The objective of the present work is to simulate surface roughness in Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machine by Fuzzy Modeling of AISI 1045 Steel. To develop the fuzzy model; cutting depth, feed rate and speed are taken as input process parameters. The predicted results are compared with reliable set of experimental data for the validation of fuzzy model. Based upon reliable set of experimental data by Response Surface Methodology twenty fuzzy controlled rules using triangular membership function are constructed. By intelligent model based design and control of CNC process parameters, we can enhance the product quality, decrease the product cost and maintain the competitive position of steel.

AbstractQuench hardening aims at the microstructural transformation of steels in order to improve hardness and mechanical strength. The aim phase is, in most cases, the martensite. It is necessary to heat the material until it obtains its austenitization and quenching by immersion in a fluid. Currently, it is common to use watery polymeric solutions in this procedure. These fluids, which are the mixture of polymers in water, vary their thermal exchange capacity depending on the concentrations applied. The increase in concentration minimizes the removal of heat from the part, reducing the formation capacity of martensite, and developing a lower hardness and strong steel. In this work, microstructural characteristics and properties of AISI 1045 steel quenched in solutions based on polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in 10, 15, 20, and 25% concentration were evaluated. The microstructural characterization quantified the percentage of the phases in each concentration, demonstrating a reduction of martensite as the concentrations were high. The investigation of the samples by x-ray diffraction confirmed the absence of austenite retained in the material. Furthermore, a microhardness scale between the core and the surface was constructed, in which a reduction gradient of the indices of this property towards the core of the sample was evidenced.

When applying the non-parallel shear zone model to predict the cutting process parameters of carbon steel workpiece, it is found that there is a big error between the prediction results and the experimental values. And also, the former approach to obtain the relevant cutting parameters of the non-parallel shear zone model by applying coordinate transformation to the parallel shear zone model has a theoretical error – it erroneously regards the determinant (|J|) of the Jacobian matrix (J) in the coordinate transformation as a constant. The shape of the shear zone obtained when |J| is not constant is drew and it is found that the two boundaries of the shear zone are two slightly curved surfaces rather than two inclined planes. Also, the error between predicted values and experimental values of cutting force and cutting thrust is slightly smaller than that of constant |J|. A corrected model where |J| is a variable is proposed. Since the specific values of inclination of the shear zone (α, β), the thickness coefficient of the shear zone (as) and the constants related to the material (f0, p) are not given in the former work, a method to obtain the above-mentioned five constants by solving multivariable constrained optimization problem based on experimental data was also proposed; based on the obtained experimental data of AISI 1045 steel workpiece cutting force, cutting thrust, chip thickness, the results of five above-mentioned model constants are obtained. It is found that, compared with prediction from uncorrected model, the cutting force and cutting thrust of AISI 1045 steel predicted by the corrected model with the obtained constants has a better agreement with the experimental values obtained by Ivester.

The present work proposes to enhance the thermal interface denition in Finite Element (FE) simulations of machining. A user subroutine has been developed in Abaqus/Explicit © to implement a new experimentally-based heat partition model extracted from tribological tests. A 2D Arbitrary-Lagragian-Eulerian (ALE) approach is employed to simulate dry orthogonal cutting of AISI 1045 steel with coated carbide inserts. Simulation results are compared to experimental ones over a whole range of cutting speeds and feed rates in terms of average cutting forces, chip thickness, tool chip contact length and heat flux. This study emphasizes that heat transfer and temperature distribution in the cutting tool are drastically in uenced by the thermal formulation used at the interface. Consistency of the numerical results such as heat flux transmitted to the tool, peak temperature as well as hot spot location can be denitively improved.

This paper describes an electronic-mechanical system which utilizes sonic signals to detect the degree of cutting edge wear in metalworking tools and automatically trigger a cutting edge change. A packaged electronic unit reads out sonic vibrations from an instrumented machine-tool workpiece cutting-tool system to determine degree of cutting edge wear during a turning cut. At a predetermined comparative sonic ratio, the electronic unit commands stoppage of the machine tool feed, retraction of the tool and automatic index of the cemented carbide insert to the next good cutting edge. The latter function is performed by a prototype mechanical device. The paper describes the system and cites data generated during use of the sonic detection system with five grades of cemented carbide cutting AISI 1045 steel. Results under varying cutting conditions are reported. The authors speculate on the possibility of combining such a wear detection and cutting edge indexing arrangement with a computer to provide a complete system for optimum productivity and economy in a completely automatic operation.
