Experimental researches on material removal rate and surface roughness of Al2O3 engineering ceramic guide-pulley lapping were carried out using W20 and W5 fixed oilstones by self-developed ultrasonic lapping tool both with and without ultrasonic assistance. Experimental results show that lapping speed, lapping pressure and grain size produce different effects on the lapped surface roughness and material removal rate. The material removal rate in ultrasonic lapping process is two times as large as that in traditional lapping, and the ground surface roughness is superior to that in common machining method. The material removal rate increases along with the average diameter of grains and the lapping speed both in ultrasonic lapping and traditional lapping. In traditional lapping process the material removal rate becomes bigger along with the lapping force, while in ultrasonic lapping it gets the optimal value with the lapping force 450N. The value of lapped surface roughness increases along with the lapping speed in traditional lapping, on the contrary it decreases contrast to the lapping speed until 250rpm in the ultrasonic lapping. The value of traditionally lapped surface roughness decreases contrast to the lapping force, whereas it achieves the minimum with the lapping force 450N with ultrasonic assistance.

The monolayer brazed diamond tools have recently been used increasingly in hard-brittle materials grinding because of their excellent grinding performances as long tool life, high material removal rate and large inter-grit chip space, etc. However, they possess an inherent shortcoming of the high roughness of the grinding surface. This work is an attempt to reduce the over-protruded grits of the monolayer brazed diamond wheel so that precision grinding operations can be executed effectively. In this investigation, the monolayer brazed diamond wheels with regular distribution pattern of grit have been dressed by a special conditioning process and used in precision grinding experiments on Li-Ti ferrite. The outcome of this attempt appeared highly encouraging. A substantial improvement of the ground surface roughness could be achieved with the dressed monolayer brazed diamond wheels.

Grinding Efficiency

Surface roughness and the material removal rate (MRR) are two important indicators during the grinding process. The former determines the surface quality while the latter reflects the grinding efficiency directly. In this paper, the two indicators are taken into consideration simultaneously and differently by converting them into a comprehensive goal with using weighting objective method. A prediction model was established for each comprehensive goal with each different combination of surface roughness and MRR weighting coefficient. The optimal value of abrasive size, contact force, belt linear speed, and feed speed were obtained under different grinding situations by using a central composite design (CCD) combined with response surface analysis. The experimental results showed that the comprehensive goal can be used effectively as an indicator to control the grinding performance and improve the optimization process.

In the present study, Experimental investigation of the effects of various cutting parameters on the response parameters in the hard turning of EN36 steel under the dry cutting condition is done. The input control parameters selected for the present work was the cutting speed, feed and depth of cut. The objective of the present work is to minimize the surface roughness to obtain better surface finish and maximization of material removal rate for better productivity. The design of experiments was done with the help of Taguchi L9 orthogonal array. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to find out the significance of the input parameters on the response parameters. Percentage contribution for each control parameter was calculated using ANOVA with 95 % confidence value. From results, it was observed that feed is the most significant factor for surface roughness and the depth of cut is the most significant control parameter for Material removal rate.

Edm Process

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of the most common non-traditional processes for the manufacture of high precision parts and complex shapes. The EDM process depends on the heat energy between the work material and the tool electrode. This study focused on the material removal rate (MRR), the surface roughness, and tool wear in a 304 stainless steel EDM. The composite electrode consisted of copper (Cu) and silicon carbide (SiC). The current effects imposed on the working material, as well as the pulses that change over time during the experiment. When the current used is (8, 5, 3, 2, 1.5) A, the pulse time used is (12, 25) μs and the size of the space used is (1) mm. Optimum surface roughness under a current of 1.5 A and the pulse time of 25 μs with a maximum MRR of 8 A and the pulse duration of 25 μs.

Discharge Machining is a non-traditional machining technique and usually applied for hard metals and complex shapes that difficult to machining in the traditional cutting process. This process depends on different parameters that can affect the material removal rate and surface roughness. The electrode material is one of the important parameters in Electro –Discharge Machining (EDM). In this paper, the experimental work carried out by using a composite material electrode and the workpiece material from a high-speed steel plate. The cutting conditions: current (10 Amps, 12 Amps, 14 Amps), pulse on time (100 µs, 150 µs, 200 µs), pulse off time 25 µs, casting technique has been carried out to prepare the composite electrodes copper-sliver. The experimental results showed that Copper-Sliver (weight ratio70:30) gives better results than commonly electrode copper, Material Removal Rate (MRR) Copper-Sliver composite electrode reach to 0.225 gm/min higher than the pure Copper electrode. The lower value of the tool wear rate achieved with the composite electrode is 0.0001 gm/min. The surface roughness of the workpiece improved with a composite electrode compared with the pure electrode.

Machining Performance

This manuscript discusses the experimental results on 300 W picosecond laser machining of aerospace-grade nickel superalloy. The effect of the laser’s energetic and beam scanning parameters on the machining performance has been studied in detail. The machining performance has been investigated in terms of surface roughness, sub-surface thermal damage, and material removal rate. At optimal process conditions, a picosecond laser with an average power output of 300 W can be used to achieve a material removal rate (MRR) of ∼140 mm3/min, with thermal damage less than 20 µm. Shorter laser pulse widths increase the material removal rate and reduce the resultant surface roughness. High scanning speeds improve the picosecond laser machining performance. Edge wall taper of ∼10° was observed over all the picosecond laser machined slots. The investigation demonstrates that high-power picosecond lasers can be used for the macro-machining of industrial components at an acceptable speed and quality.
