The machinability of composite materials depends on reinforcements, matrix properties, cutting parameters, and on the cutting tool used (material, coating, and geometry). For new composites, experimental studies must be performed in order to understand their machinability, and thereby help manufacturers establishing appropriate cutting data. In this study, investigations are conducted to analyze the effects of cutting parameters and drill bit diameter on the thrust force, surface roughness, specific cutting energy, and dust emission during dry drilling of a new hybrid biocomposite consisting of polypropylene reinforced with miscanthus fibers and biochar. A full factorial design was used for the experimental design. It was found that the feed rate, the spindle speed, and the drill bit diameter have significant effects on the thrust force, the surface roughness, and the specific cutting energy. The effects of the machining parameters and the drill bit diameter on ultrafine particles emitted were not statistically significant, while the feed rate and drill bit diameter had significant effects on fine particle emission.

In this study, the mechanical and machinability characteristics of chitosan (Cts)-filled polypropylene (PP) composites produced by injection molding method were analyzed. Uniaxial tensile, impact, hardness, and three-point flexural tests were used to observe the influence of Cts filler on the mechanical behavior of PP. For the machinability analysis of these materials, drilling experiments based on Taguchi’s L27 orthogonal array were performed using different drill qualities and machining parameters. Then, machining conditions are optimized through grey relational analysis methodology for machinability characteristics such as thrust force and surface roughness obtained from drilling tests. The results showed that tensile, flexural strength, and percentage elongation decreased while impact strength increased with adding the Cts filler to PP. Moreover, it was determined that the tensile and flexural modulus of elasticity increased significantly and there was a slight increase in hardness. Thrust forces decreased while surface roughness values increased when the Cts filler ratio and feed rate was increased. The optimal machining conditions for minimizing thrust force and surface roughness was obtained as PP/10 wt% Cts material, uncoated tungsten carbide drill, feed rate of 0.05 mm/rev, and cutting speed of 40 m/min. In this regard, PP composite reinforced by 10 wt% Cts is recommended for industrial applications in terms of both the mechanical and machinability characteristics.

Abstract. Productivity and economy are key elements of any sustainable manufacturing system. While productivity is associated to quantity and quality, economy focuses on energy efficient processes achieving an overall high output to input ratio. Machining of hard-to-cut materials has always posed a challenge due to increased tool wear and energy loss. Cryogenics have emerged as an effective means to improve sustainability in the recent past. In the present research the use of cooling conditions has been investigated as an input variable to analyze its effect on tool wear, specific cutting energy and surface roughness in combination with other input machining parameters of feed rate, cutting speed and depth of cut. Experimental design was based on Taguchi design of experiment. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was carried out to ascertain the contribution ratio of each input. Results showed the positive effect of coolant usage, particularly cryogenic, on process responses. Tool wear was improved by 33 % whereas specific cutting energy and surface roughness were improved by 10 % and 9 % respectively by adapting the optimum machining conditions.

In this study, the relationship between the spindle vibration and surface roughness was investigated and the effect of the cutting parameters on surface roughness and spindle vibration during the machining of Aluminum alloy 7075 (Al 7075) were determined. Experimental studies have been carried out on a CNC turning machine using coated cemented carbide cutting tools under dry cutting environment. L64 full factorial design of experiments was used to investigate the optimal machining parameters for spindle vibration and surface roughness. The influences of machining parameters on vibration and surface roughness were evaluated by using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and main effect plots. The results revealed that the feed rate was the most effective cutting parameters on spindle vibration and surface roughness. The machine tool vibration amplitude and surface roughness values were significantly increased with increasing cutting feed. The depth of cut and cutting speed have the least effect on the spindle vibration and indicated an insignificant effect on surface roughness. Mathematical equations were developed to predict the vibration and surface roughness values using the regression analysis.

Abstract Epoxy granite composites with its wide range of applications in machine tool industries are manufactured by molding process and require post cast machining operations to meet the desired dimensional accuracy for assembly of machine tool structures. In this research work, milling of epoxy granite composites are carried out based on the experimental design from Response Surface Methodology (RSM) techniques and further the optimal solutions are determined by a novel hybrid algorithm AHP-TOPSIS. Central Composite Design (CCD) model is applied with three factors-three levels and the measured output responses are thrust force, tangential force and surface roughness. Experimental combinations of 20 different trials are performed using high speed steel end mill cutter of diameter 10mm with three levels of input parameters: speed; fibre content and feed rate at a uniform depth of cut. The relative importance matrix formulated proved to be highly consistent with its consistency ratio to a maximum of 0.000641 which lies below the higher range of 0.1. Consistency ratio of 0.000641 reveals that the optimal solutions determined will be highly reliable and the decision making is much more judicious. Optimal solution determined from hybrid AHP-TOPSIS methods are: speed 1800 rpm; feed rate 0.03 m/min and 0% percent fibre content. Functional relationships among parameters and responses established by RSM are consistent upto 95% and its significance is tested by analysis of variance. Comparison among predicted and experimental values of three measured responses convey that the percentage variations are minimum with up to 2.03% for surface roughness, 2.50% for thrust force and 2.71% for tangential force components. This research work provides a systematic procedure and clear framework for determination of optimal machining conditions by hybrid methodology on the basis of technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) combined with analytical hierarchy procedure (AHP) for attribute weights and further analyzes the influence of machining parameters over measured responses.

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.

Modern technologies for continuous carbonization of Eucalyptus sp. require special care in wood cutting procedures. Choosing the right tool, cutting speeds and feed rates is important to manage time and energy consumption, both of which being critical factors in optimizing production. The objective of this work is to examine the influence of machining parameters on the specific cutting energy consumption of Eucalyptus sp. stands MN 463 and VM 01, owned by V&M Florestal. Tests were performed at the Wood Machining Laboratory of the Federal University of Lavras (DCF/UFLA). Moist logs 1.70m in length were used. The experiment was set up using a 3 x 3 x 4 x 2 factorial design (cutting speed x feed rate x number of teeth x tree stand). Results were subjected to analysis of variance and means were compared by the Tukey test at the 5% significance level. Greater cutting speeds, lower feed rates and the 40 teeth circular saw consumed more specific energy. Stand MN 463 consumed more specific energy. The combination of cutting speed 46 m.s-1, feed rate 17 m.min-1 and 24 teeth circular saw produced better specific energy consumption results for stand MN 463. As for stand VM 01, the combination of cutting speed 46 m.s-1, feed rate 17 m.min-1 and 20 teeth circular saw resulted in lower specific energy consumption.

Recently, Firefly Algorithm (FA) has become an important technique to solve optimization problems. Various FA variants have been developed to suit various applications. In this paper, FA is used to optimize machining parameters such as % Volume fraction of SiC (V), cutting speed (S), feed rate (F), depth of cut (D) and machining time (T). The optimal machining cutting parameters estimated by FA that lead to a minimum surface roughness are validated using ANOVA test.

In this study, an attempt has been made to optimize cutting parameters (cutting speed, depth of cut, and feed rate) in conventional turning operations. A Taguchi orthogonal array (L933) was used in surface roughness optimization of a solid round bar of mild steel material. The experimental runs were randomized; two skilled machinists were involved in the turning operation using the same machining parameters. ANOVA analysis was performed to identify the percentage contribution of the factors affecting surface roughness during machining. The optimal cutting combination was determined by using the signal-to-noise ratio and the following results were obtained; speed (level 2) = 55.m/min, depth of cut (level 3) = 0.08mm, and feed rate (levels 3) = at 0.08mm/rev. A prediction of surface roughness was carried out using the optimal setting followed by a confirmatory test on the lathe. The result shows that the confirmatory runs compared favourably (96.44%) with the predicted surface roughness.
