Optimization Of Cutting Parameters

In precision milling, the quality of surface finish is an important requirement for workpiece machined. Thus, optimization of cutting parameters is important for controlling the surface quality. In this study, the Taguchi method is used to find the effects of milling parameters on surface roughness in precision milling of 3J33 maraging steel. A model, which is based on the milling parameters and tool geometry, is also proposed in order to predict the surface topography. The experimental results show that milling speed has significant effect on the surface roughness among the milling parameters. Besides, tool geometry and material deformation play important roles in the surface topography.

Optimal Cutting Parameters

In this study AISI 1045 steel of different hardness are used in high speed milling. According to Taguchi method, cutting parameters (milling speed, milling depth, feed per tooth) and workpiece hardness for the influence of high speed milling of the surface roughness are optimized. Through this study, not only the optimal cutting parameters of the minimum surface roughness is obtained, but also the main cutting parameters that effect performance in high speed milling is analysed. Researching results can be provided to guide establishment of the high speed milling process.

One of the most important issues in turning operations is to choose suitable parameters in order to achieve a desired surface finish. The surface finish in machining operation depends on many parameters such as workpiece material, tool material, tool coating, machining parameters, etc. The purpose of this research is to focus on the analysis of optimum cutting parameters to get the lowest surface roughness in turning Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V with the insert with the standard code DNMG 110404 under dry cutting condition, by the Taguchi method. The turning parameters are evaluated as cutting speed of 14, 20 and 28 m/min, feed rate of 0.12, 0.14 and 0.16 mm/rev, depth of cut of 0.3, 0.6 and 1 mm, each at three levels. The Experiment was designed using the Taguchi method and 9 experiments were conducted by this process. The results are analyzed using analysis of variance method (ANOVA). The results of analysis show that the depth of cut has a significant role to play in producing lower surface roughness that is about 63.33% followed by feed rate about 30.25%, and cutting speed has less contribution on the surface roughness. Also it was realized that with the use of the confirmation test, the surface roughness improved by 227% from its initial state.

Optimization of cutting parameters in finish turning of medical stainless steel 316LVM with coated carbide tools using Taguchi method is proposed in this paper. Four cutting parameters namely, insert radius, depth of cut, feed and cutting speed are optimized with considerations of surface roughness as performance characteristic. The effects of cutting parameters on the surface roughness were experimentally investigated. Experimentation was conducted as per Taguchi's orthogonal array. Four cutting parameters with three levels are arranged in L27 orthogonal array. The orthogonal array, measured values of surface roughness, signal-to-noise ratios and analysis of variance are employed to study the surface roughness. Based on the analysis, the optimal cutting parameter settings were determined. Through the confirmation test with optimal cutting parameter settings the effectiveness of the optimization approach are validated. The obtained results have shown that Taguchi method is suitable for optimizing the cutting parameter levels with the minimum number of experiments.

Optimization Of Cutting Parameters

While thin beams are widely used structural elements in Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) there are very few studies investigating the laser machining of clean high aspect ratio silicon beams. This work presents a systematic study of selected influencing cutting parameters with the goal of machining high aspect ratio beams with low side wall surface roughness (Ra) and high cross section verticality, i.e. low taper angle. The Taguchi method was used to find the optimal setting for each of the selected parameters (pulse frequency, laser diode current, pulse overlap, number of patterns to be marked, gap size between patterns) utilizing orthogonal arrays and signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio analysis. Double-sided clamped beams of 100μm width and 10mm length were machined in silicon wafers of 525μm thickness using a nanosecond solid-state UV laser system (355nm wavelength). Our experimental results show that beams with an aspect ratio as high as 17.5 can be manufactured. Furthermore, a surface roughness of Ra = 0.37μm and taper angle of α = 2.52 degrees can be achieved. This will make the fast fabrication of MEMS devices with aspect ratios as high as those from deep reactive ion etching possible.
