CNC turning is widely used as a manufacturing process through which unwanted material is removed to get the high degree of surface rough. In this research article, Taguchi technique was coupled with grey relation analysis (GRA) to optimize the turning parameters for simultaneous improvement of productivity, average surface roughness (Ra), and root mean square roughness (Rq).Taguchi technique L2...

The reproducibility of a reaming test was analysed to document its applicability as a performance test for cutting fluids. Reaming tests were carried out on a drilling machine using HSS reamers. Workpiece material was an austenitic stainless steel, machined using 4.75 m·min cutting speed and 0.3 mm·rev feed. A mineral straight oil and a water-based lubricant at two different oil concentrations ...
