In this study, an attempt is made to examine the machining response parameters in turning of AISI 1040 steel under different lubrication environment. Subsequently, design of experiment technique Response surface methodology (RSM) is used for analyzing machining performance by varying cutting conditions with the use of 2wt% of CNT/MoS2(1:2) HNCF. Regression models are developed for multiple machining responses. Optimization is performed for these models by using desirability function, which converts multi-objective into single objective. Then the optimal setting parameters for single objective is found. Significant reduction in main cutting force (Fz), cutting temperature (T), surface roughness(Ra) and tool flank wear (Vb) are found with the use of 2wt% of CNT/MoS2(1:2) HNCF compared to other lubrication environment. Significant factors that affect the main cutting force (Fz), the temperature in the cutting zone are cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. Parameter depth of cut has an insignificant effect on tool flank wear and surface roughness (Ra). The optimal cutting conditions for four multi-objective optimization of main cutting force (Fz), cutting temperature, surface roughness (Ra) and tool flank wear are found to be cutting speed 70.25 m/min, feed 0.13 mm/rev and doc 0.5mm at desirability value of 0.907.

The aim of this study is to determine the optimal combination of process parameters when machining commercially pure titanium grade 2. The unification of Multi objective optimization based on ratio analysis (MOORA) and fuzzy approach has applied to optimize the process parameters. Three process parameters i.e. cutting speed, tool overhang, and microhardness have been varied at three levels each and a total of twenty seven experiments have been conducted based on Taguchi’s L27 design of experiment technique. Cutting force, tool flank wear, and average surface roughness have been considered a machinability indicators to measure the process performance. Feed rate and depth of cut have been kept constant. Successful optimization is done and results show that machining titanium at higher cutting speed (140 m/min) and higher tool overhang length (65 mm) with medium hardness (1934 HV) results in lower cutting force, tool flank wear, and surface roughness. Outcomes of the present work reveal that the hybrid fuzzy-MOORA method is convincing enough to obtain the best process parameter combination for the best machinability while machining titanium type difficult-to-machine materials.

In this paper, the machinability of a fabricated AM alloy (Mg-7 wt%Al-0.9 wt%Mn) has been examined. The novel AM alloy was subjected to turning using a systemized CNC setup. The input turning variables: feed ( f), cutting speed ( v), and depth of cut (DOC) were suitably altered to analyze effects on response variables such as cutting force ( Fc), cutting temperature ( T), and tool life ( TL). Subsequently, the microstructure characterization of the machined surface was done for validating the experimental results. The experimental results established the influence of input parameters on response variables. The cutting force was mostly dominated by DOC, and the cutting temperature was predominantly influenced by cutting speed. The SEM images exhibited the adverse effect of higher values of input parameters on the surface condition. The finest surface was observed at f: 0.1 mm/rev, DOC: 0.5 mm, and v: 115 m/min. Further, the analysis of tool life was done by assessing the flank wear; the measured data showed the significant influence of cutting speed on flank wear. The maximum tool life of 51 min was achieved at the lowest levels of three input parameters.

This paper aims to investigate cutting conditions influence on main cutting force and surface roughness based on considered chip form types in cast nylon turning operation with single-point high speed steel cutting tool. The 75 experiments were performed by average of three levels of cutting speed, five levels of cutting depth and five levels of feed rate. The results reveal that main cutting forces were increased by an increasing of cutting speed and cutting depth for all obtained chip form types for all chip form types. The surface roughness is affected by increasing of feed rate and reduction of cutting speed for 2.3 Snarled and 4.3 Snarled chip form types. The statistical path-coefficient analysis results are shown that the main cutting force affected by cutting speed, depth of cut and feed rate with total causal effect value of 0.5537, 0.4785 and 0.1718, respectively. The surface roughness is influenced by feed rate, cutting speed and depth of cut with 0.8400, -0.2419 and-0.0711 of total causal effect value, respectively. These results are useful to perform varying cutting conditions for high quality of workpiece in cast nylon turning by control the chip form type.

In this paper, the evolutions of cutting force, cutting temperature, and surface roughness, and the corresponding machinability in asymmetric up-milling of TC25 alloy are investigated. The results indicated that radial depth of cut generated opposite influence on the cutting force/cutting temperature versus surface roughness. The reason can be accounted as the intertwining of feed marks at low radial depth of cut, and the mechanism of hard cutting at a high radial depth of cut. Moreover, the asymmetry has a significant effect on the machinability in asymmetry up-milling TC25 alloy. Changing the asymmetry, i.e., the radial depth of cut, can alter the machinability while maintain the balanced development of various indexes. The machinability reaches the best when the radial depth of cut is ae = 8 mm. The axial depth of cut and feed per tooth should be selected as large as possible to avoid work hardening and to improve machining efficiency in asymmetric up-milling TC25 alloy. The cutting speed should be controlled within Vc = 100–120 m/min to obtain better machinability. On the basis of this research, it is expected to find optimized milling parameters to realize high efficiency milling of TC25 alloy.

In the present work, the performances of TiAlN-, AlCrN- and AlCrN/TiAlN-coated and uncoated tungsten carbide cutting tool inserts are evaluated from the turning studies conducted on EN24 alloy steel workpiece. The output parameters such as cutting forces, surface roughness and tool wear for TiAlN-, AlCrN- and AlCrN/TiAlN-coated carbide cutting tools are compared with uncoated carbide cutting tools (K10). The design of experiment based on Taguchi’s approach is used to obtain the best turning parameters, namely cutting speed ([Formula: see text]), feed rate ([Formula: see text]) and depth of cut ([Formula: see text]), in order to have a better surface finish and minimum tool flank wear. An orthogonal array (L[Formula: see text] was used to conduct the experiments. The results show that the AlCrN/TiAlN-coated cutting tool provided a much better surface finish and minimum tool flank wear. The minimum tool flank wear and minimum surface roughness were obtained using AlCrN/TiAlN-coated tools, when [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m/min, [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mm/rev and [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mm.

This article reveals the experimental investigation on the machinability of A356-TiB2/TiC in-situ composites prepared by a mixed salt reaction system. The fabricated composites are characterized by Energy dispersive analysis (EDAX), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and micro-hardness analysis. Multi-coated tungsten carbide tool was used to examine the influence of TiB2/TiC reinforcement ratio on machinability behaviour of composites. The variations in cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut upon cutting force, surface roughness and flank wear were examined. The experimental results revealed that the enhancement of a reinforcement ratio causes the decrease in cutting force and increase in flank wear and surface roughness. Higher flank wear is observed, when machining the A356-TiB2/TiC composites at higher cutting speed due to the generation of high temperature at the machining interface. The increment in surface roughness, flank wear and cutting force is experienced at higher depth of cut and feed rate. Further, the mechanisms of chip formation and surface generation under different machining parameters are addressed. The outcome of this experimental investigation helps to utilize the turning process for machining the in-situ composites at economic machining rate without compromising the surface quality.

High-speed milling tests were performed on vol. (5%-8%) TiCp/TC4 composite in the speed range of 50-250 m/min using PCD tools to nvestigate the cutting temperature and the cutting forces. The results showed that radial depth of cut and cutting speed were the two significant influences that affected the cutting forces based on the Taguchi prediction. Increasing radial depth of cut and feed rate will increase the cutting force while increasing cutting speed will decrease the cutting force. Cutting force increased less than 5% when the reinforcement volume fraction in the composites increased from 0% to 8%. Radial depth of cut was the only significant influence factor on the cutting temperature. Cutting temperature increased with the increasing radial depth of cut, feed rate or cutting speed. The cutting temperature for the titanium composites was 40-90 °C higher than that for the TC4 matrix. However, the cutting temperature decreased by 4% when the reinforcement's volume fraction increased from 5% to 8%.

This study focuses on optimization of cutting conditions and modeling of cutting force ([Formula: see text]), power consumption ([Formula: see text]), and surface roughness ([Formula: see text]) in machining AISI 1040 steel using cutting tools with 0.4[Formula: see text]mm and 0.8[Formula: see text]mm nose radius. The turning experiments have been performed in CNC turning machining at three different cutting speeds [Formula: see text] (150, 210 and 270[Formula: see text]m/min), three different feed rates [Formula: see text] (0.12 0.18 and 0.24[Formula: see text]mm/rev), and constant depth of cut (1[Formula: see text]mm) according to Taguchi L18 orthogonal array. Kistler 9257A type dynamometer and equipment’s have been used in measuring the main cutting force ([Formula: see text]) in turning experiments. Taguchi-based gray relational analysis (GRA) was also applied to simultaneously optimize the output parameters ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]). Moreover, analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been performed to determine the effect levels of the turning parameters on [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Then, the mathematical models for the output parameters ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) have been developed using linear and quadratic regression models. The analysis results indicate that the feed rate is the most important factor affecting [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], whereas the cutting speed is the most important factor affecting [Formula: see text]. Moreover, the validation tests indicate that the system optimization for the output parameters ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) is successfully completed with the Taguchi method at a significance level of 95%.

This paper details experimental results when turning Ti-6Al-4V using water-miscible vegetable oil-based cutting fluid. The effects of coolant concentration and working conditions on tool flank wear and tool life were evaluated. L27 fractional factorial Taguchi array was employed. Tool wear (VBB) ranged between 28.8 and 110 µm. The study concluded that a combination of VOs based cutting fluid concentration (10%), low cutting speed (58 m/min), feed rate (0.1mm/rev) and depth of cut (0.75mm) is necessary to minimise VBB. Additionally, it is noted that tool wear was significantly affected by cutting speeds. ANOVA results showed that the cutting fluid concentration is statistically insignificant on tool flank wear. A notable increase in tool life (TL) was recorded when a lower cutting speed was used.
