 Due to the widespread use of highly automated machine tools in the metal cutting industry, manufacturing requires highly reliable models and methods for the prediction of output performance in the machining process. The prediction of optimal manufacturing conditions for good surface finish and dimensional accuracy plays a very important role in process planning. In the steel turning process the tool geometry and cutting conditions determine the time and cost of production which ultimately affect the quality of the final product. In the present work, experimental investigations have been conducted to determine the effect of the tool geometry (effective tool nose radius) and metal cutting conditions (cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut) on surface finish during the turning of EN-31 steel. First and second order mathematical models are developed in terms of machining parameters by using the response surface methodology on the basis of the experimental results. The surface roughness prediction model has been optimized to obtain the surface roughness values by using LINGO solver programs. LINGO is a mathematical modeling language which is used in linear and nonlinear optimization to formulate large problems concisely, solve them, and analyze the solution in engineering sciences, operation research etc. The LINGO solver program is global optimization software. It gives minimum values of surface roughness and their respective optimal conditions.

AbstractNowadays lot of scientific work inspired by industry companies was done with the aim to avoid the use of cutting fluids in machining operations. The reasons were ecological and human health problems caused by the cutting fluid. The most logical solution, which can be taken to eliminate all of the problems associated with the use of cooling lubricant, is dry machining. In most cases, however, a machining operation without lubricant finds acceptance only when it is possible to guarantee that the part quality and machining times achieved in wet machining are equalled or surpassed. Surface finish has become an important indicator of quality and precision in manufacturing processes and it is considered as one of the most important parameter in industry. Today the quality of surface finish is a significant requirement for many workpieces. Thus, the choice of optimized cutting parameters is very important for controlling the required surface quality. In the present study, the influence of different machining parameters on surface roughness has been analysed. Experiments were conducted for turning, as it is the most frequently used machining process in machine industry. All these parameters have been studied in terms of depth of cut (ap), feed rate (f) and cutting speed (vc). As workpiece, material steel S235 has been selected. This work presents results of research done during turning realised on conventional lathe CDS 6250 BX-1000 with severe parameters. These demonstrate the necessity of further, more detailed research on turning process results.

Dry Cutting

The machining of aerospace materials, such as metal matrix composites, introduces an additional challenge compared with traditional machining operations because of the presence of a reinforcement phase (e.g. ceramic particles or whiskers). This reinforcement phase decreases the thermal conductivity of the workpiece, thus, increasing the tool interface temperature and, consequently, reducing the tool life. Determining the optimum machining parameters is vital to maximising tool life and producing parts with the desired quality. By measuring the surface finish, the authors investigated the influence that the three major cutting parameters (cutting speed (50–150 m/min), feed rate (0.10–0.30 mm/rev) and depth of cut (1.0–2.0 mm)) have on tool life. End milling of a boron carbide particle-reinforced aluminium alloy was conducted under dry cutting conditions. The main result showed that contrary to the expectations for traditional machined alloys, the surface finish of the metal matrix composite examined in this work generally improved with increasing feed rate. The resulting surface roughness (arithmetic average) varied between 1.15 and 5.64 μm, with the minimum surface roughness achieved with the machining conditions of a cutting speed of 100 m/min, feed rate of 0.30 mm/rev and depth of cut of 1.0 mm. Another important result was the presence of surface microcracks in all specimens examined by electron microscopy irrespective of the machining condition or surface roughness.

Polyetheretherketones (PEEK) has been widely used as biomaterial for trauma, orthopaedic and spinal implants. Component made from Polyetheretherketones generally required additional machining process for finishing which can be a problem especially to attain a good surface roughness and dimensional precision. This research attempts to optimize the machining and processing parameters (cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut) for effectively machining Polyetheretherketones (PEEK) implant material using carbide cutting tools. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) technique was used to assess the effects of the parameters and their relations towards the surface roughness values. Based on the analysis results, the optimal machining parameters for the minimum surface roughness values were by using cutting speed of 5754 rpm, feed rate of 0.026 mm/tooth and 5.11 mm depth of cut (DOC).

High Speed Machining

Surface finish and dimensional accuracy is one of the most important requirements in machining process. Inconel 718 has been widely used in the aerospace industries. High speed machining (HSM) is capable of producing parts that require little or no grinding/lapping operations within the required machining tolerances. In this study small diameter tools are used to achieve high rpm to facilitate the application of low values of feed and depths of cut to investigate better surface finish in high speed machining of Inconel 718. This paper describes mathematically the effect of cutting parameters on Surface roughness in high speed end milling of Inconel 718. The mathematical model for the surface roughness has been developed in terms of cutting speed, feed rate, and axial depth of cut using design of experiments and the response surface methodology (RSM). Central composite design was employed in developing the surface roughness models in relation to primary cutting parameters. Machining were performed using CNC Vertical Machining Center (VMC) with a HES510 high speed machining attachment in which using a 4mm solid carbide fluted flat end mill tool. Wyko NT1100 optical profiler was used to measure the definite machined surface for obtaining the surface roughness data. The predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental one and hence the model can be efficiently used to predict the surface roughness value with in the specified cutting conditions limit.

Metal cutting operations involve intense heat generation owing to plastic deformation of the work piece and due to friction at the tool-work piece and tool-chip interface. The heat generated in metal cutting unfavourably affects the quality and thus the functional performance of the product. It is known that quality and functional performance is the function of roughness and dimensional accuracy. To maintain a longer component life, along with the robust material choice, a component should have good surface finish and dimensional accuracy. While, for the organization to monitor and control their environmental issues in a holistic manner, emphasis in adopting eco-friendly practices and protecting environment has been growing continuously across all the business sectors. In this study, an attempt is made to optimize the process parameter of stainless steel AISI-410 alloy, a nuclear graded material, for better surface finish. For this, Taguchi L9 orthogonal array was utilise to identify the process parameter and cutting environment. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was also conducted to highlight the significant parameter that affects the surface finish most. A statistical model to forecast the surface roughness was also developed and was validated by an experiment with a maximum error of 12%. Results indicates that feed rate is the most critical factor that effects the surface roughness with the contribution of 91.5%, followed by environment with 5.22% contribution, cutting speed and depth of cut with 2.7 % and 0.4 % respectively. The correlation coefficient of 0.9213 and conformation tests reveals that developed statistical model predicts surface roughness with the statistical error limit.

Machining process such as milling receives less attention in the study of machinability of composites due to its interrupted cutting and the complexity of the process. In the present study, A356 aluminium alloy powder reinforced with 10 volume % SiC particles of various sizes (1,12.5 and 25 µm) were synthesized by vacuum hot pressing method and the effect of particle size on the composites were analysed for its mechanical properties and machinability. End milling of these composites were carried out and the surface roughness and resultant cutting force were analysed with the change of machining parameters and varying SiC particle sizes. The minimum cutting force and surface roughness were obtained for a finer particle (1 µm) reinforced composite with higher cutting speed, low feed and depth of cut.

One of the most important issues in turning operations is to choose suitable parameters in order to achieve a desired surface finish. The surface finish in machining operation depends on many parameters such as workpiece material, tool material, tool coating, machining parameters, etc. The purpose of this research is to focus on the analysis of optimum cutting parameters to get the lowest surface roughness in turning Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V with the insert with the standard code DNMG 110404 under dry cutting condition, by the Taguchi method. The turning parameters are evaluated as cutting speed of 14, 20 and 28 m/min, feed rate of 0.12, 0.14 and 0.16 mm/rev, depth of cut of 0.3, 0.6 and 1 mm, each at three levels. The Experiment was designed using the Taguchi method and 9 experiments were conducted by this process. The results are analyzed using analysis of variance method (ANOVA). The results of analysis show that the depth of cut has a significant role to play in producing lower surface roughness that is about 63.33% followed by feed rate about 30.25%, and cutting speed has less contribution on the surface roughness. Also it was realized that with the use of the confirmation test, the surface roughness improved by 227% from its initial state.
