This article reveals the experimental investigation on the machinability of A356-TiB2/TiC in-situ composites prepared by a mixed salt reaction system. The fabricated composites are characterized by Energy dispersive analysis (EDAX), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and micro-hardness analysis. Multi-coated tungsten carbide tool was used to examine the influence of TiB2/TiC reinforcement ratio on machinability behaviour of composites. The variations in cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut upon cutting force, surface roughness and flank wear were examined. The experimental results revealed that the enhancement of a reinforcement ratio causes the decrease in cutting force and increase in flank wear and surface roughness. Higher flank wear is observed, when machining the A356-TiB2/TiC composites at higher cutting speed due to the generation of high temperature at the machining interface. The increment in surface roughness, flank wear and cutting force is experienced at higher depth of cut and feed rate. Further, the mechanisms of chip formation and surface generation under different machining parameters are addressed. The outcome of this experimental investigation helps to utilize the turning process for machining the in-situ composites at economic machining rate without compromising the surface quality.

Optimization Of Cutting Parameters

Stainless steels have gained much attention to be an alternative solution for many manufacturing industries due to their high mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. However, owing to their high ductility, their low thermal conductivity and high tendency to work hardening, these materials are classed as materials difficult to machine. Therefore, the main aim of the study was to examine the effect of cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on the response parameters including surface roughness (Ra), tangential cutting force (Fz) and cutting power (Pc) during dry turning of AISI 316L using TiCN-TiN PVD cermet tool. As a methodology, the Taguchi L27 orthogonal array parameter design and response surface methodology (RSM)) have been used. Statistical analysis revealed feed rate affected for surface roughness (79.61%) and depth of cut impacted for tangential cutting force and cutting power (62.12% and 35.68%), respectively. According to optimization analysis based on desirability function (DF), cutting speed of 212.837 m/min, 0.08 mm/rev feed rate and 0.1 mm depth of cut were determined to acquire high machined part quality

The present work has been focused on cutting force (Fc) and analysis of machined surface in turning of AA 6061 alloy with uncoated and PVD-TiB2 coated cutting inserts. Turning tests have been conducted on a CNC turning under dry cutting conditions based on Taguchi L18 (21 × 33) array. Kistler 9257A type dynamometer and equipment have been used in measuring the main cutting force (Fc) in turning experiments. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been applied to define the effect levels of the turning parameters on Fc and Ra. Moreover, the mathematical models for Fc and Ra have been developed via linear and quadratic regression models. The results indicated that the best performance in terms of Fc and Ra was obtained at an uncoated insert, cutting speed of 350 m/min, feed rate of 0.1 mm/rev, and depth of cut of 1 mm. Moreover, the feed rate is the most influential parameter on Ra and Fc, with 64.28% and 54.9%, respectively. The developed mathematical models for cutting force (Fc) and surface roughness (Ra) present reliable results with coefficients of determination (R2) of 96.04% and 92.15%, respectively.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina

Abstract The zirconia toughened alumina enhanced with titania and chromia (ZTA-TiO2-Cr2O3) ceramic cutting tool is a new cutting tool that possesses good hardness and fracture toughness. However, the performance of the ZTA-TiO2-Cr2O3 cutting tool continues to remain unknown and therefore requires further study. In this research, the wearing of the ZTA-TiO2-Cr2O3 cutting tool and the surface roughness of the machined surface of stainless steel 316L was investigated. The experiments were conducted where the cutting speeds range between 314 to 455 m/min, a feed rate from 0.1 to 0.15 mm/rev, and a depth of cut of 0.2 mm. A CNC lathe machine was utilised to conduct the turning operation for the experiment. Additionally, analysis of the flank wear and crater wear was undertaken using an optical microscope, while the chipping area was observed via scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The surface roughness of the machined surface was measured via portable surface roughness. The lowest value of flank wear, crater wear and surface roughness obtained are 0.044 mm, 0.45 mm2, and 0.50 µm, respectively at the highest cutting speed of 455 m/min and the highest feed rate of 0.15 mm/rev. The chipping area became smaller with the increase of feed rate from 0.10 to 0.15 mm/rev and larger when the feed rate decrease. This was due to the reduced vibrations at the higher spindle speed resulting in a more stable cutting operation, thereby reducing the value of tool wear, surface roughness, and the chipping area.

This paper aims to investigate cutting conditions influence on main cutting force and surface roughness based on considered chip form types in cast nylon turning operation with single-point high speed steel cutting tool. The 75 experiments were performed by average of three levels of cutting speed, five levels of cutting depth and five levels of feed rate. The results reveal that main cutting forces were increased by an increasing of cutting speed and cutting depth for all obtained chip form types for all chip form types. The surface roughness is affected by increasing of feed rate and reduction of cutting speed for 2.3 Snarled and 4.3 Snarled chip form types. The statistical path-coefficient analysis results are shown that the main cutting force affected by cutting speed, depth of cut and feed rate with total causal effect value of 0.5537, 0.4785 and 0.1718, respectively. The surface roughness is influenced by feed rate, cutting speed and depth of cut with 0.8400, -0.2419 and-0.0711 of total causal effect value, respectively. These results are useful to perform varying cutting conditions for high quality of workpiece in cast nylon turning by control the chip form type.

The milling of AISI 321 stainless steel which has wide engineering applications particularly in automobile, aerospace and medicine is of great importance especially in the conditions where high surface quality is required. In this paper, L16 orthogonal array design of experiments was adopted to evaluate the machinability of AISI 321 stainless steel with coated cemented carbide tools under finish dry milling conditions, and the influence of cutting speed ( V ), feed rate ( f ) and depth of cut ( ap ) on cutting force, surface roughness and tool wear was analysed. The experimental results revealed that the cutting force decreased with an increase in the cutting speed and increased with an increase in the feed rate or the depth of cut. The tool wear was affected significantly by the cutting speed and the depth of cut, while the effect of the feed rate on the tool wear was insignificant. With the cutting speed increased up to 160 m/min, a decreasing tendency in the surface roughness was observed, but when the cutting speed was further increased, the surface roughness increased. The effect of the feed rate and the depth of cut on the surface roughness was slight.

Reinforced aluminum composites are the basic class of materials for aviation and transport industries. The machinability of these composites is still an issue due to the presence of hard fillers. The current research is aimed to investigate the drilling topographies of AA7075/TiB2 composites. The samples were prepared with 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 wt.% of fillers and experiments were conducted by varying the cutting speed, feed, depth of cut and tool nose radius. The machining forces and surface topographies, the structure of the cutting tool and chip patterns were examined. The maximum cutting force was recorded upon increase in cutting speed because of thermal softening, loss of strength discontinuity and reduction of the built-up-edge. The increased plastic deformation with higher cutting speed resulted in the excess metal chip. In addition, the increase in cutting speed improved the surface roughness due to decrease in material movement. The cutting force was decreased upon high loading of TiB2 due to the deterioration of chips caused by fillers. Further introduction of TiB2 particles above 12 wt.% weakened the composite; however, due to the impact of the microcutting action of the fillers, the surface roughness was improved.

This paper presents an investigation into the minimum quantity lubrication mode with nano fluid during turning of alloy steel AISI 4340 work piece material with the objective of experimental model in order to predict surface roughness and cutting force and analyze effect of process parameters on machinability. Full factorial design matrix was used for experimental plan. According to design of experiment surface roughness and cutting force were measured. The relationship between the response variables and the process parameters is determined through the response surface methodology, using a quadratic regression model. Results show how much surface roughness is mainly influenced by feed rate and cutting speed. The depth of cut exhibits maximum influence on cutting force components as compared to the feed rate and cutting speed. The values predicted from the model and experimental values are very close to each other.

Aircraft component manufacturing sector is looking for high precision machining in aircraft components. The present work explores the operability of green manufacturing of Nimonic C263 using dry turning. Nimonic C263 is tough to turn owing to its inherent quality like low conductivity and more work hardening. Therefore, in order to improve this machined surface/integrity, the controlling factors were optimized based on desirability approach for minimum of surface roughness and flank wear during turning of this alloy using CBN insert. L27 orthogonal array was chosen to carry out the experiment. The effects of controlling factors, such as cutting speed ( V ), feed rate ( S ), and cut penetration/depth of cut ( a p ) on the outputs, were also explored. The feed rate was a major impact to affect surface finish and flank wear. The average error percentage between the experimental and RSM models for surface finish was 4.76 percent and 2.79 percent for flank wear.
