One of the main goals of the metal-mechanical industries is the reduction of the production costs through the productivity increase. In the attempt to reach this goals, many researchers have been used the hot machining method. This method consists, basically, in the heating of the work piece hundreds of degrees Celsius above room temperature with aid of an external source of heat. Thus, the red...

engineering ceramics due to high-strength-to-weight ratio, wear and corrosion resistance, and high strength temperatures, in the industries especially in aerospace, automobile, electronics and computers are used widely. in attention to the  increasingly usage process of these material, applying of conventional machining methods  for producing  machined into complex and desired shapes or making ...

Electric Discharge Machining is a non-conventional machining process, used to machining difficult to machine materials. The major problem faced while doing EDM is high tool wear rate, end wear, corner wear , surface roughness and low material removal rate,. In this research work experimental investigations have been made to find the machining characteristics of high density ultra fine graphite ...

Microlubrication minimizes the exposure of metal working fluids (MWFs) leading to an economical, safer and healthy workplace environment. In this study vegetable based lubricant is used to conduct wear analysis during end milling AISI 1018 steel using microlubrication. Solid carbide cutting tool was used with varying cutting speed and feed rate having a constant depth of cut. A full factorial e...

This paper presents a new statistical-based method of tool life monitoring for turning process, called Integrated Kurtosis-based Algorithm for Z-filter Technique, I-kaz, which was based on statistical analysis. The I-kaz method calculates the related coefficient for the measured machining signals. The input data of the I-kaz was acoustic signal that was generated during machining process, which...

This paper describes a fuzzy-nets approach with the assistance of a statistical model (multiple regression) to create an in-process tool wear prediction (S-FN -ITWP) system, the goal of which is to predict tool wear in milling operations under cutting conditions determined by feed rate and depth of cut with cutting force detected through a dynamometer. After the S-FN-ITWP system had been traine...

In this study, two different vegetable based cutting fluids developed from refined canola and sunflower oil and a commercial type semi-synthetic cutting fluid were carried out to determine optimum conditions for tool wear and forces during milling of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel. Taguchi L9 (3) orthogonal array was used for the experiment plan. Cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and ...

Quantitative understanding of cutting forces under hard turning conditions is important for thermal modeling, tool life estimation, chatter prediction, and tool condition monitoring purposes. Although significant research has been documented on the modeling of forces in the turning operation in general, turning of hardened materials involves several distinctive process conditions, including neg...

a high strength nickel chromium alloy (50cr-50ni-nb alloy), commonly referred to as in-657, is specifically used for components in furnaces which are fired by low grade fuel oils containing high levels of vanadium, sodium and sulphur. the purpose of this study is to experimentally investigatethe effect of machining parameters on machinability in turning of inconel 657. the considered parameters...

Metal matrix composites have been widely used in industries, especially aerospace industries, due to their excellent engineering properties. However, it is difficult to machine them because of the hardness and abrasive nature of reinforcement elements like silicon carbide particles (SiCp).In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the influence of spindle speed (N), feed rate...
