Fretwork, as a decorating technique, can today be performed with modern means by laser or CNC routing, but the tool influence on the surface quality must be well un\]=[-poitrwjerstood for further optimization of the cutting parameters. The paper presents an experimental work for the determination of the influence of the cutting angle with respect to the grain on the surface quality of larch wood (Larix Decidua Mill.) cut through by laser and CNC routing at different feed speeds. The research considered geometric fretwork patterns derived from triangle, where the cutting angles with respect to the wood grain were 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90°. The feed speeds of the CNC routing were set for 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 4 m/min. The surface quality was analyzed by a range of roughness, waviness and primary profile parameters combined with stereomicroscopic images. Although the principle of cutting and interaction with wood of the two processing tools, laser and CNC, is very different, the analysis with roughness parameters has revealed that the cutting angle with respect to the grain has an essential influence, whatever the cutting tool. The surface quality decreases with an increase in the feed speed of the CNC router and processing at 15° and 60° appears to be the worst option from all angle variants for both types of processing. Cutting by laser is melting wood in latewood areas resulting in a smoothing effect.

In order to recognize the integrity of workpiece surface texture, this paper introduces the method of mended texture spectrum based on workpiece surface texture. The workpiece surface texture images can be described based on analyzing the influence of cutting parameters on the surface texture. The experimental results indicate that the cutting parameters have a great effect on the integrity of workpiece surface texture. In other words, the effect of cutting speed is evident, that of feed speed, depth of cut to a less extent. In addition, the integrity of texture changes greatly in short time with the increase of cutting parameters.

To furthermore optimize the machining parameters and improve the surface quality of the workpieces manufactured by single point incremental forming method, the formation mechanism of the sacle veins on the metal incremental froming workpieces was studied through experiment method. The influence principle of the spindle speed, the feed speed and the material of tip of tools on the length of scale veins was obtained through analyzing the experimental results and building the mathematical model among the length of scale veins were feed speed and spindle speed through measuring the roughness of surfaces and observing the appearance of the forming workpieces. The experimental results showed that, the spindle speed, the feed speed and the material of tool tips have a significant effect on the scale veins formation on the surface of forming workpieces. Therefore, an appropriate group of spindle speed and feed speed can reduce the effect of scale veins on the roughness of single point incremental forming workpieces and furthermore improve the surface quality of forming workpieces.

Within the scope of high speed milling process parameters, analyzed and discussed the effects of spindle speed, feed rate, milling depth and milling width on milling forces in the process of high speed milling of AM50A magnesium alloy. At the same time, the influence of milling parameters on the surface roughness of AM50A magnesium alloy has been revealed by means of the measurement of surface roughness and surface micro topography. High speed milling experiments of AM50A magnesium alloy were carried out by factorial design. Form the analysis of experimental results, The milling parameters, which have significant influence on milling force in high speed milling of AM50A magnesium alloy, are milling depth, milling width and feed speed, and the nonlinear characteristics of milling force and milling parameters. The milling force decreases with the increase of spindle in the given mill parameters. For the effects of milling parameters on surface quality of the performance, in the milling depth and feeding speed under certain conditions with the spindle speed increases the surface quality of AM50A magnesium alloy becomes better with the feed speed increases the surface quality becomes poor. When the spindle speed is greater than 12000r/min, the milling depth is less than 0.2mm, and the feed speed is less than 400mm/min, the milling surface quality can be obtained easily.

This paper presented the experiments of Nd:YAG pulsed laser cutting of titanium alloy, super-alloy and stainless steel sheet, and investigated the influences of different laser cutting parameters on the surface quality factors focusing surface morphology. In comparison with air-, argon- and nitrogen-assisted laser cutting, argon-assisted laser cutting comes with unaffected surface quality and is suitable for laser cutting with subsequent welding requirement. With analyzing the interaction between pulses overlapping rate and energy, the results show that medium pulse overlapping rate and lower pulse rate helps to improve the surface roughness with pulsed laser cutting. And the results would be beneficial to find optimum cutting parameters for good separation surface.

Magnesium alloys exhibit a very good ratio of mechanical properties versus specific weight, thus making it an important choice for parts used in automotive, aeronautic and medical industry. The distribution of residual stress in the superficial layer of the material is regarded as one of the factors defining the surface quality of a machined part. It is therefore important to know this distribution as it is closely related to fatigue and corrosion resistance, especially for the parts working in aggressive environments (i.e. biomedical devices). The present paper focuses on the determination of the residual stresses induced in a magnesium alloy part processed by milling, and their effects on surface quality.

The research of the determination of the fractal characteristics of the surface of a material proposes the use of a stationary profilograph and a computer program for calculating the Hurst exponent. The low accuracy of fractal analysis using the well-known computer program Fractan is revealed. A computer program developed in VBA for the fractal analysis of the time series is described. The high accuracy of the algorithms for calculating the Hurst exponent incorporated in this program is shown.

Higher tool wear and inferior surface quality of the specimens during machining restrict metal matrix composites’ application in many areas in spite of their excellent properties. The researches in this field are not well organized, and knowledge is not properly linked to give a complete overview. Thus, it is hard to implement it in practical fields. To address this issue, this article reviews tool wear and surface generation and latest developments in machining of metal matrix composites. This will provide an insight and scientific overview in this field which will facilitate the implementation of the obtained knowledge in the practical fields. It was noted that the hard reinforcements initially start abrasive wear on the cutting tool. The abrasion exposes new cutting tool surface, which initiates adhesion of matrix material to the cutting tool and thus causes adhesion wear. Built-up edges also generate at lower cutting speeds. Although different types of coating improve tool life, only diamond cutting tools show considerably longer tool life. The application of the coolants improves tool life reasonably at higher cutting speed. Pits, voids, microcracks and fractured reinforcements are common in the machined metal matrix composite surface. These are due to ploughing, indentation and dislodgement of particles from the matrix due to tool–particle interactions. Furthermore, compressive residual stress is caused by the particles’ indentation in the machined surface. At high feeds, the feed rate controls the surface roughness of the metal matrix composite; although at low feeds, it was controlled by the particle fracture or pull out. The coarser reinforced particles and lower volume fraction enhance microhardness variations beneath the machined surface.

Milling processing is an important way to obtain wood–polyethylene composite (WPC) end products. In order to improve the processing efficiency and surface quality of WPC and meet the practical application requirements, this paper focussed on morphology and roughness of the WPC-milled surface and studied surface quality changes under different cutting parameters and milling methods through multi-parameters milling experiments. The milling surface morphology and roughness of WPC were analyzed and measured during cut-in, cutting and cut-out sections. It also revealed the affect rule of different cutting parameters and milling methods on milled surface morphology and roughness. The results show that the milling surface roughness of WPC products with wood powder content of 70% is significantly larger than the one whose wood powder content is 60%, and defects such as holes are also relatively more. Finally, a surface roughness prediction model was established based on the mathematical regression method and its multi-factor simulation was carried out. A comparative analysis of predictive and experimental values was performed to verify the reliability of the model. It could also provide theoretical guidance and technical guarantee for high processing quality of WPC milling and cutting.
