Under the strict restrictions of international environmental regulations, how to reduce environmental hazards at the production stage has become an important issue in the practice of automated production. The precision computerized numerical-controlled (CNC) cutting process was chosen as an example of this, while tool wear and cutting noise were chosen as the research objectives of CNC cutting quality. The effects of quality optimizing were verified using the depth of cut, cutting speed, feed rate, and tool nose runoff as control parameters and actual cutting on a CNC lathe was performed. Further, the relationships between Fuzzy theory and control parameters as well as quality objectives were used to define semantic rules to perform fuzzy quantification. The quantified output value was introduced into game theory to carry out the multi-quality bargaining game. Through the statistics of strategic probability, the strategy with the highest total probability was selected to obtain the optimum plan of multi-quality and multi-strategy. Under the multi-quality optimum parameter combination, the tool wear and cutting noise, compared to the parameter combination recommended by the cutting manual, was reduced by 23% and 1%, respectively. This research can indeed ameliorate the multi-quality cutting problem. The results of the research provided the technicians with a set of all-purpose economic prospective parameter analysis methods in the manufacturing process to enhance the international competitiveness of the automated CNC industry.

Multiresponse Optimization

Optimization in turning means determination of the optimal set of the machining parameters to satisfy the objectives within the operational constraints. These objectives may be the minimum tool wear, the maximum metal removal rate (MRR), or any weighted combination of both. The main machining parameters which are considered as variables of the optimization are the cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, and nose radius. The optimum set of these four input parameters is determined for a particular job-tool combination of 7075Al alloy-15 wt. % SiC (20–40 μm) composite and tungsten carbide tool during a single-pass turning which minimizes the tool wear and maximizes the metal removal rate. The regression models, developed for the minimum tool wear and the maximum MRR were used for finding the multiresponse optimization solutions. To obtain a trade-off between the tool wear and MRR the, a method for simultaneous optimization of the multiple responses based on an overall desirability function was used. The research deals with the optimization of multiple surface roughness parameters along with MRR in search of an optimal parametric combination (favorable process environment) capable of producing desired surface quality of the turned product in a relatively lesser time (enhancement in productivity). The multi-objective optimization resulted in a cutting speed of 210 m/min, a feed of 0.16 mm/rev, a depth of cut of 0.42 mm, and a nose radius of 0.40 mm. These machining conditions are expected to respond with the minimum tool wear and maximum the MRR, which correspond to a satisfactory overall desirability.

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.

Abstract Although Inconel 718 is an important material for modern aircraft and aerospace, it is a kind material, which is known to have low machinability. Especially, while these types of materials are machined, high cutting temperatures, BUE on cutting tool, high cutting forces and work hardening occur. Therefore, in recent years, instead of producing new cutting tools that can withstand these difficult conditions, cryogenic process, which is a heat treatment method to increase the wear resistance and hardness of the cutting tool, has been applied. In this experimental study, feed force, surface roughness, vibration, cutting tool wear, hardness and abrasive wear values that occurred as a result of milling of Inconel 718 material by means of cryogenically treated and untreated cutting tools were investigated. Three different cutting speeds (35-45-55 m/min) and three different feed rates (0.02-0.03-0.04 mm/tooth) at constant depth of cut (0.2 mm) were used as cutting parameters in the experiments. As a result of the experiments, lower feed forces, surface roughness, vibration and cutting tool wear were obtained with cryogenically treated cutting tools. As the feed rate and cutting speed were increased, it was seen that surface roughness, vibration and feed force values increased. At the end of the experiments, it was established that there was a significant relation between vibration and surface roughness. However, there appeared an inverse proportion between abrasive wear and hardness values. While BUE did not occur during cryogenically treated cutting tools, it was observed that BUE occurred in cutting tools which were not cryogenically treated.

High speed milling experiments using nitrogen-oil-mist as cutting medium were undertaken to investigate the characteristics of tool wear for Ti-6Al-4V Alloy, a kind of important and commonly used titanium alloy in the aerospace and automobile industries. Uncoated carbide tools have been applied in the experiments. The cutting speed was 300 m/min. The axial depth of cut and the radial depth of cut were kept constant at 5.0 mm and 1.0 mm, respectively. The feed per tooth was 0.1 mm/z. Optical and scanning electron microscopes have been utilized to determine the wear mechanisms of the cutting tools, and energy spectrum analysis has been carried out to measure the elements distribution at the worn areas. Meanwhile, comparisons were made to discuss the influence of different cutting media such as nitrogen-oil-mist and air-oil–mist upon the tool wear. The results of this investigation indicate that the tool life in nitrogen-oil-mist is significantly longer than that in air-oil-mist, and nitrogen-oil-mist is more suitable for high speed milling of Ti-6Al-4V alloy than air-oil-mist.

The present research attempts to develop a hybrid coolant by mixing alumina nanoparticles with cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) into ethylene glycol-water (60:40) and investigate the viability of formulated hybrid nanocoolant (CNC-Al2O3-EG-Water) towards enhancing the machining behavior. The two-step method has been adapted to develop the hybrid nanocoolant at various volume concentrations (0.1, 0.5, and 0.9%). Results indicated a significant enhancement in thermal properties and tribological behaviour of the developed hybrid coolant. The thermal conductivity improved by 20-25% compared to the metal working fluid (MWF) with thermal conductivity of 0.55 W/m℃. Besides, a reduction in wear and friction coefficient was observed with the escalation in the nanoparticle concentration. The machining performance of the developed hybrid coolant was evaluated using Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) in the turning of mild steel. A regression model was developed to assess the deviations in the tool flank wear and surface roughness in terms of feed, cutting speed, depth of the cut, and nanoparticle concentration using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The mathematical modeling shows that cutting speed has the most significant impact on surface roughness and tool wear, followed by feed rate. The depth of cut does not affect surface roughness or tool wear. Surface roughness achieved 24% reduction, 39% enhancement in tool length of cut, and 33.33% improvement in tool life span. From this, the surface roughness was primarily affected by spindle cutting speed, feed rate, and then cutting depth while utilising either conventional water or composite nanofluid as a coolant. The developed hybrid coolant manifestly improved the machining behaviour.

The aim of this study were to evaluate the performance of PVD (TiAlN+TiN) and CVD (TiCN+Al2O3+TiN) coated inserts in end milling of EN–31 hardened die steel of 43±1 HRC during dry and MQL (Minimum quantity lubrication) machining. The experiments were conducted at a fixed feed rate, depth of cut and varying cutting speed to measure the effect of cutting speed on cutting force and tool wear of CVD and PVD-coated inserts. The performance of CVD and PVD-coated inserts under dry and MQL condition by measuring the tool wear and cutting force were compared. During cutting operation, it was noticed that PVD inserts provide less cutting force and tool wear as compared to the CVD inserts under both dry as well as the MQL condition because PVD inserts have a thin insert coating and CVD inserts have a thick insert coating, but PVD inserts experience catastrophic failure during cutting operation whereas CVD inserts have a capability for continuous machining under different machining. Tool wear has measured by SEM analysis. The result shows that MQL machining provides the optimum results as compared to the dry condition. MQL machining has the ability to work under high cutting speed. As the cutting speed increases the performance of dry machining was decreased, but in MQL machining, the performance of the inserts was increased with increases of cutting speed. MQL machining generates less cutting force on the cutting zone and reduces the tool wear which further increase the tool life.

Cryogenic Conditions

Over the past decade, the focus of the metal cutting industry has been on the improvement of tool life for achieving higher productivity and better finish. Researchers are attempting to reduce tool failure in several ways such as modified coating characteristics of a cutting tool, conventional coolant, cryogenic coolant, and cryogenic treated insert. In this study, a single layer coating was made on cutting carbide inserts with newly determined thickness. Coating thickness, presence of coating materials, and coated insert hardness were observed. This investigation also dealt with the effect of machining parameters on the cutting force, surface finish, and tool wear when turning Ti-6Al-4V alloy without coating and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD)-AlCrN coated carbide cutting inserts under cryogenic conditions. The experimental results showed that AlCrN-based coated tools with cryogenic conditions developed reduced tool wear and surface roughness on the machined surface, and cutting force reductions were observed when a comparison was made with the uncoated carbide insert. The best optimal parameters of a cutting speed (Vc) of 215 m/min, feed rate (f) of 0.102 mm/rev, and depth of cut (doc) of 0.5 mm are recommended for turning titanium alloy using the multi-response TOPSIS technique.

The wear characteristics and life of Al2O3/(W,Ti)C ceramic tool in turning NbCp-reinforced iron-based P/M composites was investigated. Experimental results indicate that cutting parameters have an influence on tool wear, among which cutting speed and depth of cut seem to be more prominent. The maximum flank wear rapidly increases as the increase in cutting speed and depth of cut. While, it increases gradually as the decrease in feed rate. Meanwhile, an empirical model of tool life is established, from which the influence of cutting speed and depth of cut on tool life is far greater than that of feed rate. Also from the empirical model, the preferable range of cutting parameters was obtained.

With increasing quantities of applications of Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs), the machinablity of these materials has become important for investigation. This paper presents an investigation of surface roughness and tool wear in dry machining of aluminium LM6-TiC composite using uncoated carbide tool. The experiments carried out consisted of different cutting models based on combination of cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut as the parameters of cutting process. The cutting models designed based on the Design of Experiment Response Surface Methodology. The objective of this research is finding the optimum cutting parameters based on workpiece surface roughness and cutting tool wear. The results indicated that the optimum workpiece surface roughness was found at high cutting speed of 250 m min-1 with various feed rate within range of 0.05 to 0.2 mm rev-1, and depth of cut within range of 0.5 to 1.5 mm. Turning operation at high cutting speed of 250 m min-1 produced faster tool wear as compared to low cutting speed of 175 m min-1 and 100 m min-1. The wear minimum (VB = 42 μm ) was found at cutting speed of 100 m min-1, feet rate of 0.2 mm rev-1, and depth of cut of 1.0 mm until the length of cut reached 4050 mm. Based on the results of the workpiece surface roughness and the tool flank wear, recommended that turning of LM6 aluminium with 2 wt % TiC composite using uncoated carbide tool should be carried out at cutting speed higher than 175 m min-1 but at feed rate of less than 0.05 mm rev-1 and depth of cut less than 1.0 mm.
