The high speed milling of silicon carbide was discussed by using flat end-mill 2 mm in diameter diamond coated tool. Ultra-precision high speed spindle attachment was used to achieve cutting tool rotation speed as high as 50,000 rpm. Special fixture was designed to minimize the chatter on work-piece surface during the machining process. Three cutting parameters were selected as independent variables of the experiments. They were spindle speed, depth of cut and feed rate. The arithmetic mean value of roughness (Ra) was measured on the work-piece surface as the response of the experiment. Result of the experiment shows that the value of surface roughness can be achieved as low as 0.150 μm. Statistical analysis was provided to study the significant of the model, interaction among the cutting parameters and their effects to the surface roughness value.

Surface finish and dimensional accuracy is one of the most important requirements in machining process. Inconel 718 has been widely used in the aerospace industries. High speed machining (HSM) is capable of producing parts that require little or no grinding/lapping operations within the required machining tolerances. In this study small diameter tools are used to achieve high rpm to facilitate the application of low values of feed and depths of cut to investigate better surface finish in high speed machining of Inconel 718. This paper describes mathematically the effect of cutting parameters on Surface roughness in high speed end milling of Inconel 718. The mathematical model for the surface roughness has been developed in terms of cutting speed, feed rate, and axial depth of cut using design of experiments and the response surface methodology (RSM). Central composite design was employed in developing the surface roughness models in relation to primary cutting parameters. Machining were performed using CNC Vertical Machining Center (VMC) with a HES510 high speed machining attachment in which using a 4mm solid carbide fluted flat end mill tool. Wyko NT1100 optical profiler was used to measure the definite machined surface for obtaining the surface roughness data. The predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental one and hence the model can be efficiently used to predict the surface roughness value with in the specified cutting conditions limit.

This study focused on the side milling surface roughness of titanium alloy under various cooling strategies and cutting parameters. The experimental results show that the cooling strategies significantly affect the surface roughness in milling Ti-6Al-4V. Surface roughness (Ra) alterations are investigated. Cutting fluid strategy made nearly all the smallest and most stable roughness values. The surface roughness values produced by all cooling strategies are obviously affected by feed, radial depth-of-cut and cutting speed. However, axial depth-of-cut has little influence.

Surface roughness is one of the most important product quality characteristics. In this paper, experimental investigation of surface roughness was performed in high speed turning of hardened AISI P20 steel with CBN tool based on design of experiment. The influence of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and nose radius on surface roughness were assessed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Optimal cutting parameters were found to improve the machining performance. Due to the complexity of machining process, artificial neural network (ANN) was employed to develop the predictive model of surface roughness. Simulations were done to study the relationship between surface roughness and cutting parameters based on the proposed model.

High-speed machining thoroughly hardened tool steels has emerged as a competitive finishing technology for making dies and molds. The objective of this paper is to develop an optimization method for the better (i. e., lower value) surface roughness in terms of cutting parameters when high-speed milling hardened H13 steel. The cutting parameters to be considered were cutting speed, feed per tooth, radial depth of cut, and axial depth of cut, respectively. A series of high-speed milling experiments of hardened H13 steel using PVD coated carbide inserts without any cutting fluids were performed to measure the surface roughness data. Taguchi orthogonal arrays, signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to evaluate the effects of cutting parameters on surface roughness and to find the optimal factor/level combination for the better surface roughness. The investigations of this study would be used for design optimization of cutting parameters to obtain the better surface roughness.

In order to obtain better surface quality after high speed milling high hardness mold steel, and reduce tool wear in cutting process, prolong the service life of cutting tools, obtain superior levels and optimal combination of cutting parameters in the test range. Through the design of orthogonal experiment, the use of Taguchi method, and noise ratio analysis and variance analysis of dry cutting high hardness mould steel PM60 under different cutting parameters; and finally, the optimal cutting parameters of surface roughness and cutting force value were predicted and verified. Research showed that: the worst cutting parameters influenced the surface roughness Ra was radial depth of cut ae, its influence was highly significant, followed by spindle speed n and depth of axial cut ap; the most serious impact cutting parameter of cutting force F was the feed speed vf, followed by the spindle speed n and radial depth of cut ae; verification test showed that the optimal cutting parameters combination were reasonable and the calculation errors of the predicted values and experimental values were very small, indicating that Taguchi method in cutting parameters optimization of cutting mould steel PM60 was valid.

This research studied the influence of cutting fluids and cutting parameters on the surface roughness for stainless steel worked by turning machine in dry and wet cutting cases. The work was done with different cutting speeds, and feed rates with a fixed depth of cutting. During the machining process, heat was generated and effects of higher surface roughness of work material. In this study, the effects of some cutting fluids, and dry cutting on surface roughness have been examined in turning of AISI316 stainless steel material. Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) instead of other soluble oils has been used and compared to dry machining processes. Experiments have been performed at four cutting speeds (60, 95, 155, 240) m/min, feed rates (0.065, 0.08, 0.096, 0.114) mm/rev. and constant depth of cut (0.5) mm. The amount of decrease in Ra after the used suggested mixture arrived at (0.21µm), while Ra exceeded (1µm) in case of soluble oils This means the suggested mixture gave the best results of lubricating properties than other cases.

In any type of machining process the surface roughness plays an important role. In these the product is judge on the basis of their (surface roughness) surface finish. In machining process there are four main cutting parameter i.e. cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, spindle speed. For obtaining good surface finish, we can use the hot turning process. In hot turning process we heat the workpiece material and perform turning process multiple time and obtain the reading. The taguchi method is design to perform an experiment and L18 experiment were performed. The result is analyzed by using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) method. The result Obtain by this method may be useful for many other researchers.

Magnesium alloy is a material with a high strength to weight ratio and is suitable for various applications such as in automotive, aerospace, electronics, industrial, biomedical and sports. Most end products require a mirror-like finish, therefore, this paper will present how a mirror-like finishing can be achieved using a high speed face milling that is equivalent to the manual polishing process. The high speed cutting regime for magnesium alloy was studied at the range of 900-1400 m/min, and the feed rate for finishing at 0.03-0.09 mm/tooth. The surface roughness found for this range of cutting parameters were between 0.061-0.133 µm, which is less than the 0.5µm that can be obtained by manual polishing. Furthermore, from the S/N ratio plots, the optimum cutting condition for the surface roughness can be achieved at a cutting speed of 1100 m/min, feed rate 0.03 mm/tooth, axial depth of cut of 0.20 mm and radial depth of cut of 10 mm. From the experimental result the lowest surface roughness of 0.061µm was obtained at 900 m/min with the same conditions for other cutting parameters. This study revealed that by milling AZ91D at a high speed cutting, it is possible to eliminate the polishing process to achieve a mirror-like finishing.
