This study presents a new approach of localization for an elastic periodic cutting tool holder of milling machine. The paper presents a study of the factorial design application to optimize surface quality in end milling operation. Maintaining good surface quality usually involves additional manufacturing cost or loss of productivity. Therefore, mathematical model using Matlab which is feasible and applicable in prediction of surface roughness is developed. Proper setting of cutting parameter is important to obtain better surface roughness. Spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut have been chosen as predictors in order to predict surface roughness. 16 samples were run by using Emco CNC Milling machine tool. The predicted surface roughness has been obtained by using average percentage error method. A numerical model that describes the structure of the periodic holder is developed. The approximate values of periodic holder model versus to straight are plotted. The results from this research are useful to be implemented in industry to reduce time and cost in surface roughness (response) prediction.

Trimming process using Solid Carbide, 4 flute endmill of 8mm diameter tool on stacks of multidirectional CFRP/Al-2024 in a CNC Milling machine was experimentally investigated. The machining parameters considered were spindle speed (N), feed rate (fr) and depth of cut (dc). The aims were to analyze the influence factors and the interaction of these parameters with respect to surface quality produced. A Two Level Factorial Design method was used to plan systematic experiments. The influence factors and the interaction between these parameters are analyzed and the optimum machining parameters for minimizing the surface roughness is determined. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) shows that dc and fr are the most significant parameters to the overall performance of surface quality. Surface roughness of CFRP is found to be 1.778 µm and Al2024 is found to be 0.983 µm at the setting of N = 1860 rpm, fr = 620 mm/min and dc = 0.12 mm respectively. The validation test shows deviation of predicted to actual value surface roughness is 7.87% for CFRP and 6.61 % for Al2024.

In this paper, high speed milling experiments on Ti6Al4V were conducted with coated carbide inserts under a wide range of cutting conditions. The effects of cutting speed, feed rate and radial depth of cut on the cutting forces, chip morphologies as well as surface roughness were investigated. The results indicated that the cutting speed 200m/min could be considered as a critical value at which both relatively low cutting forces and good surface quality can be obtained at the same time. When the cutting speed exceeds 200m/min, the cutting forces increase rapidly and the surface quality degrades. There exist obvious correlations between cutting forces and surface roughness.

Design and manufacturing are the key steps in the sustainable manufacturing of any product to be produced. Within the perspective of injection molds production, increased competitiveness and repeated changes in the design require a complete optimized manufacturing process. Local and minor improvements in the milling process do not generally lead to an optimized manufacturing process. The goal of the new geometry and parametric analysis of the mould is to reduce the quality issues in mild steel grade 60. In this explicit research, the surface roughness (smoothness) of indigenously produced injection moulds in the local market in Pakistan is investigated. The CNC milling machine (five-axis) is used for the manufacturing of an injection mould, and the Taguchi method of the design of the experiment is applied for parameters optimization. Hence, the overall process is assisted in balancing the milling machine parameters to trim down the surface roughness issue in mild steel moulds and increase their sustainability. The spindle speed (rpm), the depth of cut (mm), and the feed rate (mm/rev) are considered as input variables for process optimization, and the experiments are performed on mild steel grade 60. It is deduced that the combination of a spindle speed of 800 rpm, feed rate of 10 mm/rev and depth of cut of 0.5 mm is the best case in case of minimum surface roughness, which leads to sustainable products. It is also deduced from ANOVA, that the spindle speed is a factor that affects the surface roughness of mild steel products, while the feed rate turns out to be insignificant.

Glass is one of the most difficult materials to be machined due to its brittle nature and unique structure such that the fracture is often occurred during machining and the surface finish produced is often poor. CNC milling machine is possible to be used with several parameters making the machining process on the glass special compared to other machining process. However, the application of grinding process on the CNC milling machine would be an ideal solution in generating special products with good surface roughness. This paper studies how to optimize the different machining parameters in glass grinding operation on CNC machine seeking for best surface roughness. These parameters include the spindle speed, feed rate, depth of cut, lubrication mode, tool type, tool diameter and tool wear. To optimize these machining parameters in which the most significant parameters affecting the surface roughness can be identified, Taguchi optimization method is used with the orthogonal array of L8(26). However, to obtain the most optimum parameters for best surface roughness, the signal to noise (S/N) response analysis and Pareto analysis of variance (ANOVA) methods are implemented. Finally, the confirmation test is carried out to investigate the improvement of the optimization. The results showed an improvement of 8.91 % in the measured surface roughness.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of the main factors of the surface roughness in semi-solid 6061 aluminum face milling. This study was conducted by using computer numerical controlled milling machine. The controlled factors were the speed, the feed rate and the depth of cut which the depth of cut was not over 1 mm. For this experiment, we used factorial designs and the result showed that the factors effected of surface roughness was the feed rate and the speed while the depth of cut did not effect with the surface roughness. Furthermore, the surface roughness was likely to reduce when the speed was 4,200 rpm and the feed rates was 1,300 mm/min. The result of the research led to the linear equation measurement value which was Ra = 0.186 - 0.000034 Speed + 0.000047 Feed rate. The equation formula should be used with the speed in the range of 3,200-4,200 rpm, feed rate in the range of 1,300-1,800 mm/min and the depth of cut not over 1 mm. The equation was used to confirm the research results, it was found that the mean absolute percentage error of the surface roughness obtained from the predictive comparing to the value of the experiment was 4.12%, which was less than the specified error and it was acceptable.

Abstract The stone products with different sizes, geometries and materials — like machine tool's bench, measuring machine's board or sculptures, floor tiles — can be produced automatically while the manufacturing engineer uses objective function similar to metal cutting. This function can minimise the manufacturing time or the manufacturing cost, in other cases it can maximise of the tool's life. To use several functions, manufacturing engineers need an overall theoretical background knowledge, which can give useful information about the choosing of technological parameters (e.g. feed rate, depth of cut, or cutting speed), the choosing of applicable tools or especially the choosing of the optimum motion path. A similarly important customer's requirement is the appropriate surface roughness of the machined (cut, sawn or milled) stone product. This paper's first part is about a five-month-long literature review, which summarizes in short the studies (researches and results) considered the most important by the authors. These works are about the investigation of the surface roughness of stone products in stone machining. In the second part of this paper the authors try to determine research possibilities and trends, which can help to specify the relation between the surface roughness and technological parameters. Most of the suggestions of this paper are about stone milling, which is the least investigated machining method in the world.

This research proposes a new application of 3-axis CNC milling machine for polishing the 60 HRC hardness steels. The rotary polishing tools are designed by refer to the end-mill ball nose’s design. The diamond powder are coated in rotary polishing tools by resinoid bonding method and concentrated in 4.4 karat/cm2. The Zig-milling tool paths are used to polish the hardness steel. After polishing, the confocal laser scanning microscope is used to analyze the arithmetic mean surface roughness of the hardness steels. The L12 orthogonal array of the Taguchi’s method is selected to conduct the matrix experiment to determine the optimal polishing process parameters. The diamond grit size and cutting speed of the rotary polishing tools, feed rate and step over of the tool path, the depth of polishing process penetration, and polishing time are used to study. The combination of the optimal level for each factor of the hardness steel polishing process are used to study again in the confirmation experiment. The predicted signal to noise ratio of smaller - the better under optimal condition are calculated by using the data from the experiment. The combination of the optimal level for each factor are used to study again in the confirmation experiment and the result show that polishing time was a dominant parameter for the surface roughness and the next was depth of penetration. The response surface design is then used to build the relationship between the input parameters and output responses. The experimental results show that the integrated approach does indeed find the optimal parameters that result in very good output responses in the rotary polishing tools polished hardness mould steel using CNC milling machine. The mean surface roughness of hardness steel polishing process is improved by the diamond rotary tools with the 3-axis CNC milling machine.

Trochoidal Milling

Surface quality has always been an important goal in the manufacturing industry, as it is not only related to the achievement of appropriate geometrical tolerances but also plays an important role in the tribological behavior of the surface as well as its resistance to fatigue and corrosion. Usually, in order to achieve sufficiently high surface quality, process parameters, such as cutting speed and feed, are regulated or special types of cutting tools are used. In the present work, an alternative strategy for slot milling is adopted, namely, trochoidal milling, which employs a more complex trajectory for the cutting tool. Two series of experiments were initially conducted with traditional and trochoidal milling under various feed and cutting speed values in order to evaluate the capabilities of trochoidal milling. The findings showed a clear difference between the two milling strategies, and it was shown that the trochoidal milling strategy is able to provide superior surface quality when the appropriate process parameters are also chosen. Finally, the effect of the depth of cut, coolant and trochoidal stepover on surface roughness during trochoidal milling was also investigated, and it was found that lower depths of cut, the use of coolant and low values of trochoidal stepover can lead to a considerable decrease in surface roughness.

AbstractThis paper presents the application of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) coupled with Teaching Learning Based Optimization Technique (TLBO) for optimizing surface integrity of thin cantilever type Inconel 718 workpiece in ball end milling. The machining and tool related parameters like spindle speed, milling feed, axial depth of cut and tool path orientation are optimized with considerations of multiple response like deflection, surface roughness, and micro hardness of plate. Mathematical relationship between process parameters and deflection, surface roughness and microhardness are found out by using response surface methodology. It is observed that after optimizing the process that at the spindle speed of 2,000 rpm, feed 0.05 mm/tooth/rev, plate thickness of 5.5 mm and 15° workpiece inclination with horizontal tool path gives favorable surface integrity.
