The present paper deals with the optimization of the three components of cutting forces and the Material Removal Rate (MRR) in the turning of AISI 5140 steel. The Harmonic Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm (H-ABC), which is an improved nature-inspired method, was compared with the Harmonic Bee Algorithm (HBA) and popular methods such as Taguchi’s S/N ratio and the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) in order to achieve the optimum parameters in machining applications. The experiments were performed under dry cutting conditions using three cutting speeds, three feed rates, and two depths of cuts. Quadratic regression equations were identified as the objective function for HBA to represent the relationship between the cutting parameters and responses, i.e., the cutting forces and MRR. According to the results, the RSM (72.1%) and H-ABC (64%) algorithms provide better composite desirability compared to the other techniques, namely Taguchi (43.4%) and HBA (47.2%). While the optimum parameters found by the H-ABC algorithm are better when considering cutting forces, RSM has a higher success rate for MRR. It is worth remarking that H-ABC provides an effective solution in comparison with the frequently used methods, which is promising for the optimization of the parameters in the turning of new-generation materials in the industry. There is a contradictory situation in maximizing the MRR and minimizing the cutting power simultaneously, because the affecting parameters have a reverse effect on these two response parameters. Comparing different types of methods provides a perspective in the selection of the optimum parameter design for industrial applications of the turning processes. This study stands as the first paper representing the comparative optimization approach for cutting forces and MRR.

Abstract Optimization of the end milling process is a combinatorial task due to the involvement of a large number of process variables and performance characteristics. Process-specific numerical models or mathematical functions are required for the evaluation of parametric combinations in order to improve the quality of the machined parts and machining time. This problem could be categorized as the offline data-driven optimization problem. For such problems, the surrogate or predictive models are useful, which could be employed to approximate the objective functions for the optimization algorithms. This paper presents a data-driven surrogate-assisted optimizer to model the end mill cutting of aluminum alloy on a desktop milling machine. To facilitate that, material removal rate (MRR), surface roughness (Ra), and cutting forces are considered as the functions of tool diameter, spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. The principal methodology is developed using a Bayesian regularized neural network (surrogate) and a beetle antennae search algorithm (optimizer) to perform the process optimization. The relationships among the process responses are studied using Kohonen’s self-organizing map. The proposed methodology is successfully compared with three different optimization techniques and shown to outperform them with improvements of 40.98% for MRR and 10.56% for Ra. The proposed surrogate-assisted optimization method is prompt and efficient in handling the offline machining data. Finally, the validation has been done using the experimental end milling cutting carried out on aluminum alloy to measure the surface roughness, material removal rate, and cutting forces using dynamometer for the optimal cutting parameters on desktop milling center. From the estimated surface roughness value of 0.4651 μm, the optimal cutting parameters have given a maximum material removal rate of 44.027 mm3/s with less amplitude of cutting force on the workpiece. The obtained test results show that more optimal surface quality and material removal can be achieved with the optimal set of parameters.

In recent years, machining of hard-to-cut metals by hard turning process is an embryonic technology for machining industry and research development. Hard turning is generally defined as the material removal process of hardened steel having hardness greater than 45 HRC.  The current research presents a comparative hard turning investigation on EN 31 (56 ± 1 HRC) grade steel using physical vapor deposition (PVD) coated carbide tool under dry and wet cooling. The selection of a better cooling strategy among dry and wet cooling was based on the value of obtained surface roughness (Ra) and material removal rate (MRR) in hard turning. Wet cooling exhibited better performance over dry cutting as lower Ra and greater MRR are achieved with wet cooling. Further, considering Taguchi L16 orthogonal array, hard turning experiments were executed in wet cooling and responses like surface roughness (Ra), material removal rate (MRR), and diameter error were studied. Further, the Grey-fuzzy hybrid optimization tool was employed and found improved results relative to the alone grey relational analysis as about 9 % less Ra and 2.612 times more MRR is noticed at the grey fuzzy optimal set of parameters.

Taking full advantage of what laser cutting technology offers in terms of achieving superb quality cuts at low cost and high production rates requires the optimization of laser cutting parameters. This implies the need to formulate and solve different laser cutting optimization problems. In this article, an optimization model for CO2 laser cutting of mild steel is developed. The laser cutting optimization problem was explicitly formulated as a single-objective optimization problem with five non-linear constraints of the equality, inequality and range type. The goal was to determine the laser cutting parameter values so as to maximize the material removal rate while simultaneously considering practical process constraints related to dross formation, kerf width, perpendicularity deviation, surface roughness and severance energy. Two crossed experimental designs of different resolutions were performed in order to define six mathematical models, which were used in the formulation of the optimization problem. For the purpose of optimization, the exhaustive iterative search algorithm was applied, since it determines solutions whose optimality is guaranteed in the given discrete space of input variable values. The practical usability of the developed laser cutting optimization model and the effectiveness of the applied optimization approach were proved while solving a real case study aimed at the optimization of laser cutting parameters for cutting parts for the furnace industry.

To assure desire quality of machined products at minimum machining costs and maximum material removal rate, it is very important to select optimum parameters when metal cutting machine tool are used. Minimum Surface Roughness (Ra) is commonly desirable for the component; however Material Removal Rate (MRR) should be maximized. This chapter presents an approach for determination of the best cutting parameters precede to minimum Ra and maximum MRR simultaneously by integrating Response Surface Methodology with Multi-Objective Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution and Teaching and learning based optimization algorithm in face milling of Al-6061 alloy. 30 experiments have been conducted based on RSM with 4 parameters, namely Speed, Feed, Depth of Cut and Coolant Speed and three levels each. ANOVA is performed to find the most influential input parameters for both MRR and Ra. Later the multi-objective attribution selection method TOPSIS and multi objective optimization method TLBO is used to optimize the responses.

Laser Milling

In this paper a system for the automatic determination of the material removal rate during laser milling process is presented. “Laser milling” can be defined as an engraving process with a strictly controlled penetration depth. In industrial applications, when a new material have to be machined or a change in the system set-up occur the user has to perform a time-consuming experimental campaign in order to determine the correlation between the material removal rate and the process parameters. In these cases the numerical models present some limits due to the elevated calculation time requested to simulate the laser milling of industrial features. In the proposed system, based on a regression model approach, the empirical coefficients, that provide the material removal rate, are automatically generated by a specific software according to the different materials that have to be processed. A description of the automated method and the results obtained in engraving TiAl6V4 and Inconel 718 superalloy with a fiber laser are presented. The system can be adapted to every combination of material/laser source.

The raw and modified versions of two nonedible vegetable oils, Pongam (Pogammia pinnata) and Jatropha (Jatropha curcas), and a commercially available branded mineral oil are used as straight cutting fluids for turning AA 6061 to assess cutting forces. Minimum quantity lubrication is utilized for the supply of cutting fluids. Cutting and thrust forces are measured. Cutting power is determined for various cutting speeds, depths of cut, and feed rates. Also, drilling is performed on the material to understand the material removal rate (MRR) under these oils. The performances of vegetable oils are compared to mineral oil. A noticeable reduction in cutting forces is observed under the Jatropha family of oils compared to mineral oil. Further, better material removal rate is seen under both the vegetable oils and their versions compared to under petroleum oil for the range of thrust forces.
