Machine tool is the basic manufacturing equipment in today’s mechanical manufacturing industry. A considerable amount of energy and carbon emission are consumed in machining processes, the realization of sustainable manufacturing of machine tools have become an urgent problem to be solved in the field of industry and academia. Therefore, five types of machine tools were selected for the typical machining processes (turning, milling, planning, grinding and drilling). Then the model of the energy efficiency, carbon efficiency and green degree model were established in this paper which considers the theory and experiment with the resource, energy and emission modeling method. The head frame spindle and head frame box were selected to verify the feasibility and practicability of the proposed model, based on the orthogonal experiment case of the key machining process. In addition, the influence rules of machining parameters were explored and the energy efficiency and green degree of the machine tools were compared. Finally, the corresponding strategies for energy conservation and emission reduction were proposed.

Energy consumption process is the basis for energy efficiency improvement of machine tools. Most of the existing researches focus on the static modelling of energy consumption of a machine tool; however, there are a few studies that paid attention to that how process parameters influence the energy consumption of machine tools during processing. It is noted that the process parameters can be selected to reduce energy consumption during machining processes without additional investment. In this paper, a characteristic energy consumption model for NC machine tool was proposed. Then, the mapping rule between process parameters and energy consumption of machine tool was studied, and the model was solved with the regular neural network (RNN). Finally, the result was verified with an experiment of milling the surface of aluminium block, which can effectively improve the energy efficiency of machine tool. The experiment results are shown that regular neural network is used to optimize the process parameters and process the same machining characteristics; we analyze the in machining process of machine tool based on the three cutting parameters, and then, a model of energy consumption. We employ to learn, and use this trained model to select optimal parameters.

Metal cutting is one of the most important machining processes in manufacturing industry. Thorough understanding of metal cutting process facilitates the optimization in selection of cutting tools and machining parameters. There are several methods used for studying phenomena in metal cutting process. Using a quick-top device is an efficient technique for investigation cutting process in which cutting action is stopped so suddenly that the “froze” specimen called the chip root honestly depicts what happened during cutting action. Design strategies of a quick-stop are accelerating cutting tool away from the workpiece or decelerating the workpiece remaining in engagement with the tool. Operation of a quick-stop device can be either mechanically or by explosive. Quick-stop devices can be utilized for various types of machining processes such as: turning, milling, drilling. This paper described the analysis, fabrication, and testing of a quick-stop device which is used for researching on chip formation in hard turning. This device has simple and safe operation which utilizes spring forces to retract the tool from workpiece during cutting. The results of performance at cutting speed of 283 m/min show that the separation distance is quite small, less than 0.2mm so that the deformations on the root chip are close to that while actual machining process. This indicates that the device has satisfied the requirements of an equipment for studying on chip formation.

In most of the machining processes, the complexity arises in the selection of the right process parameters, which influence the machining process and output responses such as machinability and surface roughness. In such situations, it is important to estimate the inter-relationships among the output responses. One such method, Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) is applied to study the inter-relationships of the output responses. Estimation of proper weights is also crucial where the output responses are conflicting in nature. In the current study, DEMATEL technique is used for estimating the inter-relationships for output responses in machining of EN 24 alloy under dry conditions. CRiteria Importance Through Inter-criteria Correlation (CRITIC) method is used to estimate the weights and finally the optimal selection of machining parameters is carried out using Techniques for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method. The model developed guides the decision maker in selection of precise weights, estimation of the inter relationships among the responses and selection of optimal process parameters.

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.

<p>Due to the extensive use of highly automated machine tools in the industry, the manufacturing requires reliable models for the prediction of output performance of machining processes. The prediction of cutting forces plays an important role in the manufacturing industry. The focus of this paper is to develop a reliable method to predict cutting forces (force in X-direction and force in Z-direction) for milling process during conventional machining of mild steel. This paper implements an adoptive Neuro-fuzzy interface system (ANFIS) to actualize an efficient model for prediction of cutting forces during conventional milling. A set of three input machining parameters like speed, feed and depth of cut, which has a major impact on the cutting forces was chosen as input to represent the machining condition. Our result confirms that ANFIS model with Gaussian member function is a better predictive tool for prediction of milling forces with minimum average test error.</p>

This work presents a non-invasive and low-cost alternative to traditional methods for measuring the performance of machining processes directly on existing machine tools. A prototype measuring system has been developed based on non-contact microphones, a custom designed signal conditioning board and signal processing techniques that take advantage of the underlying physics of the machining process. Experiments have been conducted to estimate the depth of cut during end-milling process by means of the measurement of the acoustic emission energy generated during operation. Moreover, the predicted values have been compared with well established methods based on cutting forces measured by dynamometers.

Computer simulation of industrial processes is an important alternative that may be used either to complement or to replace expensive experimental procedures associated with developing new parts or modifying existing process. For a metal cutting process, numerical simulations provide vital information about cutting forces, cutting temperatures, tooling and part distortion, etc. Since the early 1970s, FEA has been applied to simulate machining process. The development of this approach, its assumptions and techniques has been widely accepted. Nowadays, the manufacturing productivity even drives the community to the next level innovation through computer utilizations. A kinematic simulation of machining processes is one of many innovative CAE applications, especially beneficial to high volume production of automotive powertrain parts. In this paper, a generic force calculation method is introduced with a modified horsepower correction factor. An example of sizing milling force, milling paths and proper milling parameters is provided by utilizing the methodology. This paper will also discuss and propose how the manufacturing industry uses this resourceful tool. Applications of the methodology would empower product and manufacturing engineers to make intelligent and cost effective decisions.

The loads acting on a workpiece during machining processes determine the modification of the surface of the final workpiece and, thus, its functional properties. In this work, a method that uses thermocouples to measure the temperature in precision fly-cutting machining with high spatial and temporal resolution is presented. Experiments were conducted for various materials and machining parameters. We compare experimental measurement data with results from modern and advanced machining process simulation and find a good match between experimental and simulation results. Therefore, the simulation is validated by experimental data and can be used to calculate realistic internal loads of machining processes.

Turn-milling process has been paid attention in order to be used in multi-task machining processes. Moreover, looking for new machining techniques aimed at reducing cutting force is of important. Reducing cutting force in machining processes has the benefits of extending tool life and improving surface quality. One of the new concepts for reducing the cutting force is applying ultrasonic vibration. In this paper, effects of ultrasonic vibration under different machining parameters in turn-milling process of Al-7075 alloy will be investigated. In this order, a special mechanism was designed to apply ultrasonic vibration during machining process. Ultrasonic vibration exertion on the tool reduced cutting force and surface roughness up to 75% and 35%, respectively. Also tool rotational speed increment induced cutting force and surface roughness increment. In addition, tool feed rate and workpiece rotational speed increment caused cutting force and surface roughness increment. Although, feed rate was more influential.


This project was done to learn the effects of cutting parameters on cutting force and roughness (surface roughnes) of AZ31 magnesium (Mg) alloy. Machining parameters involved in this project are cutting speed, feed rate, and lubrication methods. Deckel Maho DMU 50 eVolution high speed milling machine was using and uncoated carbide button insert was used as the cutting tool. Cutting force was measured during the milling process and roughness was measured after that and cleaning process to ensure no interference that would conflicted the results. The best machining parameters identified when feed rate at 0.05 mm per tooth, cutting speed are at 600 m per min, and minimum quantity lubrication was applied during the machining process. From analysis of variance (ANOVA) table generated by Minitab software, this project can conclude that feed rate, cutting speed, and lubrication methods are significant to cutting force and roughness when machining AZ31 Mg Alloy Therefore, the relationship of surface roughness and cutting force should be taken as a major key point in machining processes. In the automotive field, magnesium was used to fabricate an engine that place at front body due to reduce the weight of vehicle. This design can increase performance and balancing of weight [1].
