Automotive shafts require maximum strength with regard to axial, bending and torsional loading to transmit power to various parts of a vehicle. Hence, it is very critical to analyse the manufacturing process and its governing parameters to exercise control over the surface properties of the shaft as it needs to be precisely manufactured in terms of dimensions and the surface roughness. The effect of three input parameters over two responses are considered as two major criteria's for production of shaft. The input parameters are speed, feed and depth of cut whereas the responses are material removal rate and surface roughness. Central Composite design was used and experimental results were analysed with Response Surface Methodology. ANOVA analysis was carried out to identify the most contributing parameter for MRR and SR. Grey Relational Analysis was adopted to identify the most feasible combination of machining parameters for turning process. The optimized parameter is identified as speed of 1000 rpm, 0.15 mm of feed and 0.35 mm of depth of cut using Grey Relational Analysis.

Taguchi’S Design Of Experiments

This study is based on Taguchi’s design of experiments along with grey relational analysis (GRA) to optimize the milling parameters to minimize surface roughness, tool wear, and vibration during machining of Inconel-625 while using coconut oil as cutting fluid (CF). The experiments were conducted based on Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal array (OA). Taguchi’s S/N was used for identifying the optimal cutting parameter for individual response. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to analyze the outcome of individual parameters on responses. The surface roughness was mostly influenced by feed. Flank wear was influenced by speed and the vibration was mostly influenced by the depth of cut as well as speed. The multi-response optimization was done through GRA. From GRA, the optimal parameters were identified. Further, nanoboric acid of 0.5 and 0.9[Formula: see text]wt.% was mixed with coconut oil to enhance lubricant properties. Coconut oil with 0.5[Formula: see text]wt.% of nanoboric acid minimizes the surface roughness and flank wear by 3.92% and 6.28% and reduces the vibration in the [Formula: see text]-axis by 4.85%. The coconut oil with 0.5[Formula: see text]wt.% of nanoboric acid performs better than coconut oil with 0.9[Formula: see text]wt.% of nano boric acid and base oil.

Due to inherent properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy, it is being used in the application of fuel injector nozzle for diesel engine, aerospace and marine industries. Since the electrochemical micromachining process involves the no heat-affected zone, no tool wear, stress- and burr-free process compared to other micromachining processes, it is widely used in the manufacturing field to fabricate complex shape and die. Hence, it is highly important to compute the optimum input parameters for enhancing the machining characteristics in such machining process. In this study, an attempt has been made to find the influence of the process parameters and optimize the parameters on machining α–β titanium alloy using Taguchi-grey relational analysis. Since applied voltage, micro-tool feed rate, electrolyte concentration and duty cycle have vital role in the process, these parameters have been chosen as the input parameters to evaluate the performance measures such as material removal rate, surface roughness and overcut in this study. From the experimental results, it has been found that micro-tool feed rate has more influence due to its importance in maintaining inter electrode gap to avoid micro-spark generation. It has also been found that lower electrolyte concentration with lower duty cycle produces lower surface roughness with better circularity on machining α–β titanium alloy. The optimum combination has been found using Taguchi-grey relational analysis and verified from confirmation test. It has also been inferred that the multi-response characteristics such as material removal rate, surface roughness and overcut can be effectively improved through the grey relational analysis.

In any machining operations, quality is the important conflicting objective. In order to give assurance for high productivity, some extent of quality has to be compromised. Similarly productivity will be decreased while the efforts are channelized to enhance quality. In this study,  the experiments were carried out on a CNC vertical machining center (KENT and INDIA Co. Ltd, Taiwan make) to perform 10mm slots on Al 6351-T6 alloy work piece by K10 carbide, four flute end milling cutter as per taguchi design of experiments plan by L9 orthogonal array was choosen to determine experimental trials. Furthermore the spindle speed (rpm), the feed rate (mm/min) and depth of cut (mm) are regulated in these experiments. Surface roughness and chip thickness was measured by a surface analyser of Surf Test-211 series (Mitutoyo) and Digital Micrometer (Mitutoyo) with least count 0.001 mm respectively. Grey relational analysis was employed to minimize surface roughness and chip thickness by setting of optimum combination of machining parameters. Minimum surface roughness and chip thickness obtained with 1000 rpm of spindle speed, 50 mm/min feed rate and 0.7 mm depth of cut respectively. Confirmation experiments showed that Gray relational analysis precisely optimized the drilling parameters in drilling of Al 6351-T6 alloy.

Manufacturing a defect free (quality) product is playing a vital role in today’s globally competitive, customer oriented era. Meeting the demand of the market by producing sufficient quantity is another challenge. Achieving greater production rates without compromising on quality, increases the complexity of the task. Adopting modern manufacturing methods like CNC turning are essential to meet the above requirements. EN19 is an important member in the family of alloy steels, which has a wide variety of applications in automobile and machine tool industries. Optimization of machining parameters is crucial in obtaining the required outputs such as quality and productivity. In this work, optimization of CNC turning parameters for machining EN19 alloy steel is performed. The number of experiments was designed using face centred central composite based response surface methodology with varied independent process parameters namely cutting speed, feed and depth of cut. After designing the experiments, the performance measures such as surface roughness of the test samples and Material Removal Rate (MRR) is calculated using the existing formulae. The influence of parameters on MRR and surface roughness are determined by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and for significance interactions of the process parameters are also considered. Using MINITAB 17 software analysis is performed. Further, regression analysis has been done and second order mathematical model is obtained. Using desirability approach, optimization is carried out.

The aim of this investigation is to optimize the multiple performance characteristics of electrical discharge machining (EDM) for SKD 61 tool steel in gas media using grey relational analysis. The three most important machining characteristics namely material removal rate (MRR), electrode wear rate (EWR), and surface roughness (SR) were considered as the measures of the performance characteristics. A series of experiments were conducted according to an L18 orthogonal array based on the Taguchi experimental design method. The observed data obtained from the experiments were evaluated to determine the optimization of machining parameters correlated with multiple performance characteristics through grey relational analysis. Moreover, analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted to explore the significant machining parameters crucially affecting the multiple performance characteristics. In addition, the optimal combination levels of machining parameters were also determined from the response graph of grey relational grades for each level of machining parameter.

The present economic situation shows the consistent demand for profitable solutions that allow business organizations to gain better ad-vantage. Due to this reason, many organizations search for methodologies that allow them to improve their products and services improve their processes, reduce costs, and improve the profit and customer satisfaction. This has been implemented through lean techniques in their managerial and production methods. As we know Lean production system mainly emphasizes on the waste elimination, using simple and visual techniques. This paper is an attempt to optimize process layout and waste expulsion for automotive powertrain in a leading automo-tive company by using lean manufacturing techniques. In this paper, the existing process in place for machining of cam shaft is analysed and process layout is optimized to reduce cycle time and lead time. In order to reduce the cycle time, the process parameters such a speed, feed and depth of cut are optimized for increased material removal rate (MRR) and decreased surface roughness (RA) by using Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) technique. As MRR is inversely related to cycle time, optimization of parameters for higher MRR reduces the cycle time. Grey Relational Analysis is done by using Design Xpert software.
