The manufacturing process of surface grinding has been established in the mass production of slim, rotationally symmetrical components. Due to the complex set-up, which results from the large sensitivity of this grinding process to a multiplicity of geometrical, kinematical and dynamical influence parameters, surface grinding is rarely applied within limited-lot production. The substantial characteristics of this grinding process are the simultaneous guidance and machining of the work piece on its periphery. Surface grinding is an essential process for final machining of components requiring smooth surfaces and precise tolerances. As compared with other machining processes, grinding is costly operation that should be utilized under optimal conditions. Although widely used in industry, grinding remains perhaps the least understood of all machining processes. The proposed work takes the following input processes parameters namely Work speed, feed rate and depth of cut. The main objective of this work is to predict the grinding behavior and achieve optimal operating processes parameters. a software package may be utilized which integrates these various models to simulate what happens during surface grinding processes. predictions from this simulation will be further analyzed by calibration with actual data. It involves several variables such as depth of cut, work speed, feed rate, chemical composition of work piece, etc. The main objective in any machining process is to maximize the Metal Removal Rate (MRR) and to minimize the surface roughness (Ra). In order to optimize these values Taguchi method, ANOVA and regression analysis is used.

Quality of the product is the major concern in manufacturing industries from customers as well as producers point of view. There are number of factors in the product such as surface condition, height, weight, length, width etc., which may be consider for the measurement of the quality. Surface roughness and Metal Removal Rate (MRR) are the two main outcomes on which numerous researchers have applied different approaches for several years to get optimum results. In this study, Taguchi Method is applied for getting optimum parameters settings for Surface roughness and Metal Removal Rate (MRR) in case of turning AlMg3 (AA5754) in CNC Lathe machine, which is an aluminum alloy having diameter 20 mm and length 100 mm. The three parameters i.e. spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut with 3 levels are taken as the process variables and the working ranges of these parameters for conducting experiments are selected based on Taguchi’s L9 Orthogonal Array (OA) design. To analyze the significant process parameters; main effect plots for data means and for S/N ratio are generated using Minitab statistical software.

Milling is one of the most practical machining processes for removing excess material to produce high quality surfaces. However, milling of composite materials is a rather complex task, owing to its heterogeneity and poor surface finish, which includes fibre pullout, matrix delamination, sub-surface damage and matrix polymer interface failure. In this study, an attempt has been made to optimize milling parameters with multiple performance characteristics in the edge milling operation, based on the Grey Relational Analysis coupled with Taguchi method. Taguchi’s L18 orthogonal array was used for the milling experiment. Milling parameters such as milling strategy, spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut are optimised along with multiple performance characteristics, such as machining forces and delamination. Response table of grey relational grade for four process parameters is used for the analysis to produce the best output; the optimal combination of the parameters. From the response table of the average GRG, it is found that the largest value of the GRG is for down milling, spindle speed of 1000 rpm, feed rate of 150 mm/min and depth of cut 0.4 mm.

Cutting fluid plays an important role in machining processes to achieve dimensional accuracy in reducing tool wear and improving the tool life. Conventional flood cooling method in machining processes is not cost effective and consumption of huge amount of cutting fluids is not healthy and environmental friendly. In micromachining, flood cooling is not recommended to avoid possible damage of the microstructures. Therefore, one of the alternatives to overcome the environmental issues to use minimum quantity of lubrication (MQL) in machining process. MQL is eco-friendly and has economical advantage on manufacturing cost. However, there observed lack of study on MQL in improving machined surface roughness in micromilling. Study of the effects of MQL on surface roughness should be carried out because surface roughness is one of the important issues in micromachined parts such as microfluidic channels. This paper investigates and compares surface roughness with the presence of MQL and dry cutting in micromilling of aluminium alloy 1100 using DT-110 milling machine. The relationship among depth of cut, feed rate, and spindle speed on surface roughness is also analyzed. All three machining parameters identified as significant for surface roughness with dry cutting which are depth of cut, feed rate, and spindle speed. For surface roughness with MQL, it is found that spindle speed did not give much influence on surface roughness. The presence of MQL provides a better surface roughness by decreasing the friction between tool and workpiece.


This study uses Taguchi methodology and Gray Relational Analysis approach to explore the optimization of face milling process parameters for Al 6061 T6 alloy.Surface Roughness (Ra), Material Removal Rate (MRR) has been identified as the objective of performance and productivity.The tests were performed by selecting cutting speed (mm / min), feed rate (mm / rev) and cutting depth (mm) at three settings on the basis of Taguchi's L9 orthogonal series.The grey relational approach was being used to establish a multiobjective relationship between both the parameters of machining and the characteristics of results. To find the optimum values of parameters in the milling operation, the response list and plots are used and found to be Vc2-f1-d3. To order to justify the optimum results, the confirmation tests are performed.The machining process parameters for milling were thus optimized in this research to achieve the combined goals such as low surface roughness and high material removal rate on Aluminum 6061 t6.It was concluded that depth of cut is the most influencing parameter followed by feed rate and cutting velocity.

The grinding process is a machining process to obtain qualified surface roughness levels and high dimensional accuracy. There are two types of processes in the grinding process, namely the roughening and finishing processes. The vibration effect of the roughing process can damage and shorten the life of the tool/machine, while in the finishing process, the effect of vibration will reduce the dimensional accuracy, shape, and surface smoothness of the workpiece. This study aims to determine the effect of crossfeed on the amplitude of vibration and surface roughness of the workpiece on the surface grinding process. The materials used are hardened tool steel OCR12VM with a variety of grinding stone types A46QV and A80LV made of aluminum oxide. The Variables of process parameters are crossfeed (mm / step) and depth of cut (mm). The measurement of vibrations uses an accelerometer, which is processed by the math CAD program in the form of amplitude and frequency. For surface roughness measurements, it is used the MT-301 surface test with 5 sample points and a sample length of 0.8 mm. The results show that the greater the cross-feed value, the bigger the amplitude of the vibration level and the surface roughness of the workpiece. The magnitude of the amplitude of the vibration on the acceleration that occurs in the grinding stone type A46QV starts from 6,7369 -18.7525 g.rms, while the grinding stone type A80LV starts from 5.0904 g.rms to 18.2821 g.rms. The surface roughness achieved in both grit 46 and grit 80 is from N3 to N5.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyse and optimise the machinability behaviour of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composites with multiple performance characteristics using the Taguchi method with fuzzy logic. Design/methodology/approach – A multi-response performance index (MRPI) was used for optimisation. The machining parameters, viz., tool geometry (helix angle of the endmill cutter), spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut, were optimised with consideration of multiple performance characteristics, viz., machining force and material removal rate. Findings – The results from confirmation runs indicated that the determined optimal combination of machining parameters improved the performance of the machining process. Originality/value – The machinability behaviour of CFRP composites during milling of CFRP composites using Taguchi method with fuzzy logic has not been previously analysed.

According to the most of the studies dealing with micro grooving, cutting, leading to lower material removal Abrasive jet machining is traditional process. Invention was made to create those needs. A number of investigation or researches were carried out by imminent personality but no detailed information and design has provided about cylindrical vibrating chamber or mixing chamber. This change in shape gives better velocity to abrasive particles and non sticking characteristic gives the better effect of erosion of material on work piece and scattering of particle towards objects. The parameter stand off distance, variable pressure, material removal rate used for this experimental study has also moderate. The work carried out with Alumina nozzle. The abrasive powder feed rate is controlled by the amplitude of mixing chamber. The root mean square value is 0.988 in linear regression model. The estimated standard error is 0.00115 which is very less. The performance of sand gives the similar better model result as given by traditional using different parameter. The taper of cut is higher with this mixing particle and better feed rate.

During machining, due to relative motion between tool and workpiece, severe thermal/frictional conditions exist at the tool-chip interface. Metal machining processes can be more efficient in terms of increasing the metal removal rate and lengthening tool life, if the thermal/frictional conditions are controlled effectively. A high pressure waterjet assisted coolant/lubricant system that can be used in conjunction with rotary tools (e.g., face milling) is developed here. The performance of this system is evaluated in terms of cutting force, surface quality, tool wear, and chip shape. The improvement in the effectiveness of the developed system with increase in water pressure and orifice diameter is also investigated. Stochastic modeling of the surface profile is performed to obtain more information about the role of waterjet in the machining process.
